Feels like everytime I log on to my old personal account it’s because I lost another person from PH. Except this one wasn’t just that. That might have been where I’ve met her there BUT she was so much more to me than that. I just really want to express myself on how extremely devastated I am on the loss of Sherry Schmidt. Honestly I am hurting and I hope we all can take a moment of silence to just appreciate how wonderful Sherry really was. I will miss you so much Angel we all will. My condolences to her family

Sherry Schmidt the memories came flooding back when I heard the news this morning. Late nights at Applebees, late night adventures, beach days, and you piercing my nose at 2 am in your room! You were ambitious, you loved fiercely, you were headstrong, and you were ALWAYS 100% authentically you. Inwish I had said I love you, more. RIP

Extremely sad to hear that this beautiful soul has been taken from us! I met her 3 years ago at the cigar dinners I go to and Sherry Schmidt was always the main event for me! I absolutely loved talking to her! One tough woman! I am glad we got to chat awhile last week ! I don’t think I will be able to attend those dinners anymore knowing I won’t see you there! You definitely made an impact on me in the few years I knew you! Taken way way to soon you will be missed!
