Sherry Stone, 1969-2020

Sherry Stone, 50, of Emory passed away peacefully into God’s arms, with her loved ones by her side, on Sunday, Nov. 1, 2020. Sherry was born Dec. 23, 1969 in Grand Saline to Robert Cunningham and Tresea Willoughby. She was a nurse for Dr. Hand and Hand in Lindale for 14 years. She was known to be a hardworking caring nurse whom her coworkers, employers and patients admired and respected. Sherry suffered a stroke in 2006 and became a devoted stay-at-home wife and Mimi who loved spending time with her grandchildren. Everyone who knew her saw her as a fighter who persevered, someone who wasn’t afraid to say what was on her mind, a person who had a fierce and funny personality, a loving and caring person, and someone who treasured her family and loved her husband deeply. Sherry Stone was truly one-of-a kind and will be missed immensely.

Sherry is survived by her husband, Jerry Stone of Emory. She and Jerry were high school sweethearts, and she voiced frequently how he has treasured her and always taken care of her since she was 16. She truly loved her “Jerry Ron.” She is also survived by her two daughters and sons-in-law, Kandice and Matthew Hargrove, and Brittany and Justin Brumit; six beautiful grandchildren whom she adored, Kylie Hargrove, Kaiden Hargrove, Paisley Hargrove, Gracelynn Hargrove, Harrison Brumit, and Adeline Brumit; her parents, Tresea Willoughby Cunnningham and Bob Stringer and Robert and Deborah Cunningham; her father in law and mother in law who treated her like a daughter, Jimmy Don and Sandra Stone; her sister and her husband, Amanda Crow and Brett Crow; her sister, Amy Marble; her brother-in-law, Michael Sherwood; her brother and his wife, Clint and Kristi Godwin; her brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Gary and Rheann Stone and Terry and Autumn Stone; and many loved nieces, nephews and other family members.

She was preceded in death by her very special brother-in-law, James Grant.

Sherry’s family will be holding a Celebration of Life in late spring where family and friends will be welcomed to honor the joyful life Sherry had.
