We are deeply saddened at this news of Sherry. I knew her through school. She once or twice proctored an end of course test for me in my room. She was very, very nice. And of course I would hear about her work with the band and advisory councel. If there is anything Jeanne or I can do to help you and your family during this sad time, please let us know.
Dear Glance and Reese Family: words can not express the heaviness my heart feels. Sherry was a truly beautiful, caring, supportive person that I have been honored to know for the past 9 years or so.

Our hearts are so heavy for the passing of our friend Sherry. She was truly a beautiful person inside and out. We never saw Sherry without a smile on her face. May God give you much comfort and strength during this most difficult time. Just know that she is at the feet of Jesus with that contagious smile she always had. God Bless All Of You.
Glance family, We are so sorry to hear of your loss of Sherry. I was in the band with her at EHS and our daughter Jennifer was a friend of Sara’s in school. May God give you grace and peace at this difficult time.
Aunt Becky,when Tommy called and told me that Sherry had passed I was dumbfounded. There are no words that can be said to make the pain and the loneliness go away. Only time will help ease the hurt but it never goes away completely. I wish I could tell you it does. Please take comfort in knowing that this was God’s plan for Sherry and he was ready for her to come home. I do know that Sherry, Mommy and Aunt Gladys are in Heaven smiling down on us and they are happy and without anymore worries. I also know that Mommy and Aunt Gladys will take good care of Sherry for you until you see her again.
With love and sympathy
Robin
May God be with the Reese and Glance family

Dear Glance Family,
As others, we are still in shock of Sherry’s passing. I have remembered the last two days of all the projects we have worked on together at Enka High School. How sweet and thoughtful she was, but most of all genuine. She will be sorely missed. I know that God needs her now and we will never understand. It is not for us to understand, just to grieve and remember what a wonderful person she was. Sara and Tyler are great legacies to their mother and should always be proud of her. My prayers are with you all.
Kim, Mike, Matt and Katie
May God be with you and your family now and forever. Praying for you all.
Greg, Sara, Tyler, Helen, and Roger
Each of you are in our prayers. We loved seeing Sherry’s smile. I enjoyed working with her on the Flower Committee at the Church. We know she did a lot for other people and did it quietly. God Bless.

We are so sorry your precious Sherry has passed on. She was such a beautiful soul and expressed it so well in the love for her family, friends, and her God. She also did so much for those she did not know, but expressed God’s love and care to them.
May God wrap your family in His loving arms.
Our Love,

Dear Glance and Reese Family,
I still remain in shock as you that God has chosen to take such a precious person from us so early in life. I will always remember all the times that Sherry was at our home, traveling with her on band trips and then spending time through the years with all of our children. I grieve for you all but I know that God can provide the grace and comfort that you will need over time to understand why. Sherry’s outlook on life and gentle spirit has touched so many lives and will continue to do so even though she’s departed this world to be in a much better place. Please know that our prayers will continue for all of you. We were all blessed to have been a part of her life. God bless you.
Greg and Family,
Teresa and I are truly saddened by Sherry’s passing. She has been my friend almost all of my life. She was always bright, and cheery, and laughing, and smiling. Our hearts go out to you, and your family. May God put you at ease, and help to ease your pain in the coming days. Enka High, Class 0f ’78, has lost an angel, and God gained one.
Our entire family is saddened to know our friend has been taken home from us and many friends at this early age. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are raised up for the Glance family in this shocking and heartbreaking time. Thanks be to God for allowing Sherry to be in our lives.
Sherry was a kind person with a heart of gold and a friend to everyone. I am deeply saddened.
May each of you gain stength through Sherry. I was her high school Health and Physical Education teacher, and knew she was going to be somebody — and she was. Know that she touched many lives, and one of those was mine. You were lucky to have her.
God Bless You All,
Carol Watkins Stanford
Greg, Sara and Tyler…we are lifting you up in prayer. I can’t think of anyone who was more involved in our community than Sherry. I keep seeing her at an Enka band concert…sitting on the left side of the auditorium…cheering on every student as they performed. She dedicated thousands of hours to volunteer work, especially at Enka High school. But she also worked hard behind the scenes in many other organizations. Sherry made a difference in the lives of so many people, which is evident from the outpouring of love from all of her friends.
Dear Glance Family-
We still can’t believe it and our hearts are so saddened with this sudden passing. God has a great plan for Sherry and she will be a most cheerful and kind addition to his kingdom. There are no words that fully express the hurt that your family is going through but God has a way of healing with time. Although it may seem like forever, this too shall pass. Just know that you have lots of friends and family that love you all so much and are willing to lend a helping hand at any time. God blessed you with such a wonderful mother, wife & best friend. We love you all very much and will be lifting your family up in prayers. God Bless…

The news about Sherry was a shock to us to say the least. It is really hard to imagine I know. I am so very sorry about it my friend! When I think of Sherry, I can only ever remember her as sweet and precious! I know her loss is and will continue to be greatly felt.
We love you brother and we will be holding you and your family up in our prayers. I pray the Lord will remain ever so close to you in the difficult days ahead.
Dear Sherry’s family,
You are truly blessed to have had Sherry in your lives and my heart hurts for your loss. She was a bright spot in my day when I saw her at the office and I will surely miss her smile. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Becky and Johnny,
Did not know of Sherry’s death until we returned from Knoxville on Sunday night. Words cannot express our deepest sympathy. We will visit you when it is convenient for a visit. God be with you and all of the family at this time.
Gloria Strickland
Words cannot express the sadness I felt upon hearing of Sherry’s death. It appears that God has called one of his angels back to heaven. I know Sherry has touched the lives of so many, myself included. She was a wonderful person! May God give you the strength to make it through this difficult time and bless you all.
Sharing your sorrow in the loss of Sherry and sending our deepest sympathy.
Dearest Family,
I was in Brians class . I remember
Sherry as a vivacious cheerleader that was friendly to us all and had such a sweet demeanor. I am sure she will be missed and I am sad to say I was too much of an underclassman to get to know her.
Love to you all , in your time of grief
Sarah Fortune Price

Dear Sherry, You were a woman of strong faith as I am. On May 4th I am certain that the Lord sent an army of angels for you. Rest in peace my love. You were always the best in the whole bunch! I will meet you sometime on the farside banks of Jordan. Love, Phyllis
