In Memoriam: Sherrie Winner
August 1948– June 2021
Sherrie Winner, Viva Village member and longtime volunteer has died. A volunteer since 2015, Sherrie served as an active member of the Events Action Team and as an office volunteer. Until the pandemic made meeting in-person impossible, she never missed a gathering of the Viva Village Book Club or the Wednesday Dine-Around. Sherrie loved being part of Viva Village, was always present to help out at events, greet people, and enjoy being with her many friends. Sherrie’s car was her prized possession and she was so pleased to provide rides to different Village events. She was known for her smile and her kindness, and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
