Sherrel Ann Clark was born on Dec. 6, 1946, in Norfolk, Nebraska, to Pauline and Wilfred Tabler and passed away at Dignity Health Mercy Medical Center in Gilbert, Arizona, on Nov. 9, 2023, at 76 years of age. Sherry grew up in Hot Springs, South Dakota, where she had three children, Curt, Karie and Kim. In the early 1970s, she moved her family to Chadron, Nebraska, where she could be closer to her mother, Pauline Jung. In 1980, Sherry began working for the Nebraska National Forest Service as a purchasing agent. She retired in 2009. In 2010, she and her husband, Roland, moved to Arizona so Sherry could be closer to her two daughters, Karie and Kim. Sherry’s hobbies included spoiling her two dogs, golfing, gardening, crafting and watching the Denver Broncos. She was a loving mother and grandmother, and was so very proud of all of our accomplishments!
Sherry is survived by her son Curt Smith; daughter-in-law Tracy; daughters Karie Jones, Kim Smith and Belinda Petersen; and son-in-law James. She is also survived by seven grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren and brother John Jung of New Mexico. Sherry is preceded in death by her husband Roland “Buck” Clark, her father Wilfred Tabler, her mother Pauline Jung, her sister Barbara Titus and her brother Mike Jung. A celebration of life will be conducted in Chadron, Nebraska, at a later date.
