Please meet my lovely sorority sister & dear friend, Sherry Summers.  Sherry and I were both in the same sorority at Miami University (she joined the year after I graduated).  Even though we were not at Miami the same years, her sorority ‘big sister’ is also a close friend of mine.  And since there are a contingent of us in Columbus, Ohio, we have remained close and spent many special times together since college.  Hence how I met Sherry.

Every group of friends needs a cruise director, and our Love Boat’s “Julie” is definitely Sherry.  She never misses one of our birthdays with her self-branded cards, hosts an annual holiday kick-off party where the laughs & fun are endless, and graciously takes on the task of planning our sorority sister get togethers.  Sherry has a way of making any topic or conversation down right funny with her dry sense of humor.  She is beautiful and confident in her own skin, takes advantage of life’s every precious minute, and never sways in her loyalty as a friend.  Thank you Sherry, for so many years of special memories.  I cherish your friendship and love you to pieces!

After I chose Sherry for my ‘October Inspirational Friend,’  I asked her to send me a brief bio about herself.  Once I read her response, I realized I could not rewrite Sherry’s words…they are so depictive of who she is and how she emulates my mantra of ‘Aging with Intention.’
