 Sharon
"Sherri" Anne (West) Miller, 66 ,passed away
peacefully Friday morning, November 29. Memorial
service for Sherri will be held at Mountain
Springs Church at 2 p.m. Saturday, December 7.
There will be a luncheon following at Free
Methodist Church.
Sherri was born December 8, 1946, in Spokane to
William Lee and Mary Lee West. She attended
primary school in Colbert, Washington, and
Priest River. She graduated from Bonners Ferry
High School in 1965.
Sherri is survived by her husband, Roger Miller,
brothers Tom and Tim West, children Shannon
Crumpton, Tony McCalmant and Nancy Litterell as
well as two step children, Jonathan Miller and
Tialisa Austin. Sherri has seven grandchildren
whom she adored as well as her precious nieces
and nephews.
Sherri worked for many years as a waitress, most
notably at Chic-n-Chop Restaurant, as well as a
mail carrier for Naples. In later years, she
worked for the Boundary County School District
as study hall monitor at the middle school level
in addition to various aide positions, her
favorite being at Riverside High School. She
loved working with the kids and watching them
progress into fine young adults.
In her leisure time, Sherri enjoyed crocheting,
gardening, baking, horseback riding, hiking,
camping, fishing, bowling, riding roller
coasters, and anything that involved her
grandkids.
One of Sherri’s last projects was to finish two
beautiful afghans for individuals at the Cancer
Center in Renton, Washington, where she said
they took such good care of her during her many
chemo treatments.
Sherri was a kid at heart! She never missed a
chance to ride the roller coasters at Silverwood
with her “kids” from the schools or her
grandkids.
She will be remembered for her fun side as well
as for the courage she showed during her long,
12 year battle with cancer. She was mom to so
many more than just the three kids she gave
birth to, which she was reminded of in her final
weeks with us here in this world.
Her list of friends and family extends beyond
any list we can create, but you all know who you
are and how she loved you. We all have peace in
knowing that she is with Jesus waiting for us to
join her.
Family and friends are invited to sign Sherri’s
book at
www.bonnersferryfuneralhome.com.
Arrangements are entrusted to the care of
Bonners Ferry Funeral Home. |
