August 1, 1940 — September 2, 2019

Sherri Lee Carr, of Jenks, Oklahoma peacefully passed away at home on September 2, 2019 at age 79,
surrounded by her family.

She was born to the late A.C. and Carmen Key on August 1, 1940 in Blackwell, Oklahoma. Sherri grew up in Healdton, Oklahoma where she was a band member, crowned football queen and graduated from Healdton High School.

Sherri enjoyed working for the administration department of Jenks Public Schools for 26 years before retiring in 2006.

Her most treasured role in life was being a loving, supporting mother to her children. She cherished God’s word, church, the truth and serving her family. She had a great sense of humor and a ready, contagious laugh.

Her down home cooking was famous to all her loved ones. The tender heart, compassion, beauty and wisdom she exuded will be greatly missed, yet those that love her most grieve with hope and joy for her return to her true home and Father.
