Sherry resides in Huntingburg. She attended Jasper High School and moved to Huntingburg in 1985. She retired after 38 years at Kimball International where she was a Sales and Operations Analyst. Sherry never had the intention of becoming a preschool director, but when she was asked to fill in, she obliged. She and her husband, Scott, have been married since 1985 and have 3 children, Breanne, Kelsey, and Logan, and 8 grandchildren, Beau, Remi, Hank, Eliza, Canyon, Lakelyn, Breckyn, and Cooper.

Sherry is a big fan of the St. Louis Cardinals and the Indianapolis Colts. She loves the beach and going to watch her grandchildren participate in their activities.

Sherry's favorite bible verse is Jeremiah 1:9, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
