Born on August 3, 1976 in Sparta, IL, Sherry was the daughter of Charles Giacomo and Donna Faught Giacomo. She was a daddy’s girl whose pride and joy were her own children. She had a special love for her nephews and gave them all a unique nickname. One of her most favorite memories was visiting her family in Illinois every year on the 4th of July and enjoying some time on the lake.
Sherry had a heart of gold always putting others before herself. She was a fighter and a strong willed person who always had a smile on her face. Most importantly, Sherry found the love for Jesus about a year ago. She began talking and praying as a part of her daily life. She was very strong and had the attitude that her lupus disease was not going to define her; she was going to fight to have the most out of her life.
In addition to her parents, she is survived by her son: Justin McKinley Giacomo of Lewisburg; daughter: Justice LaShae Giacomo of Lewisburg; sister: Jamie (Joey) Skinner of Chapel Hill; nephews: Jase, Jordan, and Eli of Chapel Hill; and niece: Madison of Smyrna. She is also survived by several aunts, uncles, and many cousins.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents: Ervin Dale Faught and Edith Troutt Faught and Charlie Giacomo and Olive Mae Coates Giacomo.
