About Sherry

I enjoy providing caring services for others. I enjoy spending time with people, providing activities and companionship, including listening to their stories/experiences/history. Becoming a caregiver was started with the need for my father to receive 24/7 care and I became his guardian, proving his health, nutritional, hygiene, daily activities, and financial needs until he passed 4 years later from CAD and end stage Alzheimer's/Dementia. From that, I began caring for a 99 year old female with Alzheimer's, again providing all of her personal needs, except financial, until she passed at 103 yrs of age. I have provided personal duty care since 2011 and have found a calling for me in this field,
