Obituary for Sherrye M. Cook (Munn)

Sherrye M.  Cook (Munn)
Sherrye Cook’s life was defined by three fundamental things: faith, family, and friends. Of these her Catholic faith was the most important. Her devotion to the church was matched by few. Sherrye was very active in the Church through Women of Grace, Bible Study, and as a Eucharistic Minister. While growing up her favorite holiday was Christmas, but as she grew older and stronger in her faith, it truly became Easter.
Her strong devotion to family, stemmed from Sherrye’s relationship with Gramma Munn. Sherrye was truly the matriarch of our family. Nothing pleased her more than making every holiday and event special and unique for everyone. Holidays gave Sherrye the opportunity to express her love of cooking and baking. Thanksgiving and Christmas were constantly filled with the enticing aromas of Aunt Muriel’s brownies, a pasta dish, or her cornbread stuffing. Sherrye loved nothing better than giving the perfect gift to everyone from a complete stranger to her closest family members. The look on her face when she saw the reaction from the person she’d given a gift to, exemplified the expression that it is better to give than receive. Yet the greatest gift she ever received herself was from her beloved brother Gil who in 2010 gave Sherrye the gift of life through a bone marrow transplant. It was through this gift that we were given six precious years.
Two of the most important events later in life were the marriage of her children Corrye (Megan) Van Caeseele-Cook and Kassidy (David) Ryan to their soulmates and the birth of her beloved grandchildren Quentyn and Aubrie. Sherrye loved being “Mimi” to her grandkids and doted on them every chance she got.
On August 21st Sherrye and her soulmate Don would have celebrated 40 years of marriage. Sherrye loved Don fully and unconditionally. Some of their favorite past times included their yearly wine tours to the finger lakes, Friday night dinners, and sunsets by the pool. Sherrye and Don also loved baseball whether it was the Yankees on television or taking in a Rochester Red Wings game. The sweet couple also loved the beach particularly their trips to Gloucester where they often held hands and watched the sun set over the ocean.
Sherrye was very proud of her heritage and knew exactly where she came from.
Sherrye always said she had the best friends in the world, and if you were close to her you were more than a friend—you were family. From her childhood best friends Gail, Elaine, Moe, and Vitza, to her amazing co-workers/second family at Sabin Metal where she worked for 29 years, to her friends in Sherrye’s later life known simply as “the Girls.” The Girls did everything from weddings, to baby showers, to dinners and book club. But they were never quite the same when the life of the group Karen Combo passed in 2015. In her final days it gave Sherrye joy and peace to know she would soon see Karen in God’s Kingdom.
Sherrye also reveled in world travel everywhere from Turks and Caicos, to Italy, to Ireland, to France. Her one regret was never being able to make pilgrimages to Fatima, Portugal and the Holy Land. But now Sherrye has made the ultimate pilgrimage into God’s loving embrace and is truly home.

Sherrye is also survived by her brothers and sisters; Lori (John) Burns, April (John) Calale, Gil Munn and Brett (Peggy) Munn.Predeceased by her parents, Dale and Mary Munn.

Friends may call Tuesday, July 19, 2016 from 4-7 PM at at the Alhart Funeral Home, 3068 West Main Street, Caledonia. Her Funeral Mass will be held Wednesday, July 20, 2016 at 11 AM at Our Lady of Mercy Church, 44 Lake St., LeRoy. Interment St. Columba Cemetery, Caledonia. In lieu of flowers memorials may be made to Our Lady of Mercy Church.
