One of her greatest accomplishments was going to the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home in Maryland when the call went out that they needed help. Due to Covid-19, half their staff was out with the Virus. She and her co-worker, which is also her best friend, Katherine Hinson did not hesitate to go. Several others from our VA Hospital went to help. Sheryl made a lot of new friends while working there and she will be missed by many.
