For many – many years – Sherry ran 5Ks – even THE CHERRY BLOSSOM 10K in D.C.-

And crossed the finish line holding hands with her two daughters –

Debby and Tammy!

Here they are – Debby – Sherry and Tammy – Sherry no longer runs – but she competes –

in her age group back when –

and took first place in that age group!

Today – she works out in GERI-FIT at the senior center and walks 2 to 3 miles almost every day!

Our “MOTTO” – age as healthy as we can!

Living our lives to the plus every day!

She also works out in the pool during the summer months with a group of ladies –

Who call themselves “THE MERMAIDS” – an hour of movement in the water.

We volunteer for the protection of SEA TURTLES –

Collecting Food for the food bank.

Organizing the library at the assisted living –

Collecting books to put into FREE LIBRAIES in the area.

Life is short but volunteering and helping others is a passion for us.

Our three oldest granddaughters when they were young –

Sarah ( now 18) Ella ( now 21) Maddy ( now 24) or will soon turn those ages.

So many memories and time rushing by!

Many – many trips into D.C. – or hiking – vacations (Sarah and her MERMAID Club)-

One soon to graduate from H.S. – One to soon graduate from college – and one graduated from college!

Memories of long ago times!

Today we celebrate life – being married for 42 plus years – aging as healthy as we can –

living our dream in the South near the beach and golfing.

Having all our families visit us and tour guiding them in the area.
