  1. We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Stewart Baxter Funeral & Memorial Services – Cedar Rapids

  2. My sympathy to Sherin’s Family. She brought a bright spot to the Belden Court neighborhood with her friendliness and quick wit. She will be missed. Sincerely,

  3. I called her “Aunt Sherin” since we moved to Cedar Rapids in 1969. She was “that girl” as my family would say-born on the same day as my mom. They were thick as thieves with their hair colors, Dean Martin on Thursday nights, and so many other great memories. Rest in peace my sweet friend, I’m sure you and mom are drinking wine, coloring each others hair again, and laughing your asses off at us!
