Sherry Ollis, aged 76, passed away peacefully on March 18, 2026, in Wynne, Arkansas. She was born on August 15, 1949, in Poplar Bluff, Missouri and one of 13 children to Henry Edward and Mattie Lou Tacy Loyd.

In 1969, Sherry came to Moro, Arkansas, with her two children, Tammy and Kenny, and in 1971, she welcomed the birth of her third child, Timmy. Her dedication to her family was unwavering and being a mother was a role she cherished. While raising her children, she attended Moro Baptist Church where she taught Sunday School to teens. It was during this time that she became the "adopted" Mother of many teens in Arkansas while sharing the gospel of Christ.

On October 31, 1992, Sherry became the wife of Lester Ollis. They made their home in Ohio, then Paragould, AR, until Lester's passing, after which Sherry moved to Missouri to be close to her daughter, Tammy.

She also enjoyed many different hobbies and interests that included her love of cooking, gospel music, dancing, even cleaning and yard work. She also loved the simple pleasures in life such as watching hummingbirds while savoring a cup of morning coffee.

Her life was a testament to her unending love for her family, her church, and her community. She will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved her. We invite you to remember Sherry for her love of life, her faith, and the joy she brought into our live
