Sherry Louise Thomas, (Cordi-Miller), age 55 of Akron, Ohio, went home to be with the Lord and her father, Lyle Cordi, on Thursday, March 28, 2019.
Sherry leaves her beloved mother, Ota (nee West) Cordi; her husband, Keith J. Thomas, whom she married on November 26, 2006; her best friend and daughter, Amy Miller, and her son, Matt (Michelle) Miller; her step-daughter, Melanie Taylor; her grandchildren, who lit up her life, Emma and Colton. Also surviving are her loving siblings, Michael, Steven, and Kevin (Barbara) Cordi, Pam (Russ) Jones and Melinda Cordi (Josh); nephew, Michael, and nieces, Brittney, Laura, Jessica (Austin), and Sky; and many good friends.
Living her whole life in the Akron area, Sherry worked for Acme for 35 years. Sherry and Keith shared a love of country music and traveled the country together, along with her daughter and step-daughter, to country concerts. That...and her love for God. She told me when we met, that when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor and she was fully ready for God to take her when He was ready for her to go and be with Him. She will be missed but always remembered.
