Sherry Lynn Adair of Gregory, Michigan, age 67, went to be with the Lord on Friday, August 29, 2025 at her home in Gregory.

Her death was too early for us, but she was ready to be in God’s presence, and we rejoice through our tears that she is now healthy and whole in His arms. She was born March 17, 1958 in Farmington, Michigan, the daughter of Robert K. and Jane M. (Leverenz) Hillaker.

Sherry’s life was full of laughter, humor, and deep care for those around her. She had an innate charm, and an authentic care and curiosity for everyone she met that turned new acquaintances into friends in the blink of an eye. Sherry faced the challenges of life with her wit, her sense of humor, her forthright perseverance, and above all her deep faith and trust in God. She found tremendous joy in her family, her friends, and her community, including those at Accelerate Church in Ann Arbor, where she was on the prayer team. She recently retired as the bookkeeper at Dapco Industries.
