I knew Sherry from Facebook. She was my prayer friend. She was one of the Moderators for the Presidential Prayer Crew. A wonderful friend to have for sure. Will see you soon Sherry. Love ❤️ you Mary Jo May
Sherry Deichman and I never actually met face to face. However, we became very good friends on Facebook through a group I started called THE PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER CREW where Sherry was first moderator then a contributor. We prayedtogether quite abut and discussed GOD and Jesus’ return. Sherry even contributed to me personally when I was going through a life struggle last year. Sherry was indeed a mighty good friend, but more than that she remains a Sister in the Lord! One day we will finally meet around the throne of our GOD!! I’ll see you very soon, Sis. Sherry!!
Until then, Ricky Perkins
Sherry was a prayer partner with us on the Presidential prayer Crew and is sorely missed. She arranged a virtual meeting with the crew through Zoom and we had the pleasure of meeting that way.
We are looking forward to seeing her in person when we go to our final Home!
