Sherman was a loyal employee at Allied Sales for 18 years and then went across the street to The Decatur Daily where he worked for 36 years until he retired. He was a faithful member of The Church of God of Prophecy for over 60 years. He loved serving his church by being the bus driver, yard worker and overall fix it man. He also served his family by being a great provider, kept all the vehicles running, always rescuing anyone who needed help. He was and will always be a hero and champion to all who knew him, especially his family.

Special thanks to Whitney, Gary and Savannah at Hospice of the Valley for their wonderful care. Also, special thanks to Pam Brakefield who provided loving care to our dad until the end.

Serving as pallbearers will be his Grandsons and Great Grandsons, and Honorary Pallbearers will be his Granddaughters and Great Granddaughters.
