Sharon "Sherri" A. Potts

***The family of Sharon “Sherri” Ann Potts welcomes you to come and celebrate her life.  Please dress for a gathering of friends rather than a funeral – Sherri loved colors bright and bold, so in her honor consider wearing something colorful or bold as she would have appreciated it.  The family also welcomes you to bring your best “Sherri” story to share as her legacy is remembered by all.

Sherri A. Potts, a Loving Mother of two, Grandmother of three, and an adoring wife to her husband Eddie G. Potts, passed away on Tuesday the 11th of January.  Sherri was born on the 28th of October, 1957 in Columbus, Ohio.  She later moved to Seneca Lake where she met and fell in love with Eddie; they married on August 6th 1977.  They together started two businesses that were very successful along with starting their family.  Eddie and Sherri grew an amazing farm overlooking Seneca Lake.

Sherri had a heart of gold and thought of everyone else before herself.  Sherri had a passion for the Lord, gardening, cooking and a love for quilting, and traveling to destinations around the world.  Sherri loved to cook and she even published her own cookbook.  Sherri’s passion for hunting ran deep as she loved being in the woods, especially to turkey hunt and hunt big whitetail bucks with her bow.  She was most passionate about her family and her grandchildren.  She has a smile that could light up any room, along with a contagious laugh/giggle that will not be forgotten.

Sherri was preceded in death by her Father James A. DeBold, Mother Ellie Merchant, Step-Father Harry Merchant, Brother-in-law Joseph Potts, Sister-in-Law Lori Smith; Grandparents and several Aunts and Uncles. 

Sherri is survived by the love of her life, Husband Eddie Potts; her children, Adam (Jenny) Potts and Sarah Potts; her three Grandchildren, Blaze Potts, Noah and Emme Potts; Also, Donald and Mary Potts;  John (Sonja) Potts, Susan (Bill) Saintenoy, Jason Isom, Diana Potts (Wife to the late Joseph Potts), Cheryl Budget; many nieces and nephews, and several special friends.

No services will be held at this time.  There will be a Celebration of Life Ceremony for the family and friends of Sherri at a later date.
