As a single mother and military retiree, Sheree raised two children, earned two college degrees, and built her own business from the ground up. Tragically, she passed away in 2019 due to chronic kidney disease. Throughout her life, Sheree was a dedicated advocate for community support and often donated to churches, schools, and community projects.
