Sherrie Beth Davis Hines' Obituary
Sherrie Beth Davis Hines was born on April 4, 1947 in McKinney, Texas. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family at home in Plano, Texas, on October 17, 2017. Sherrie is survived by Bill, her loving husband; daughter Shannon Gallucci and husband Giovanni (Plano, TX); daughter Amy Daryani and husband Sherwin (Dallas, TX); daughter Carrie Hines (Dallas, TX); grandchildren Grace Gallucci, Connor Daryani, Audrey Gallucci, and Owen Daryani; sisters Greta Allen (Lewisville, TX), Kathy Edeker and husband Lee (Allen, TX), Karen Roos and husband Bob (Dallas, TX); brother Ken Davis and wife Lisa (Tulsa, OK); sister-in-law Brenda Davis (Kerens, TX), and a large, extended family of sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, and cousins. She was preceded in death by her parents, Ernest and Myrtle Davis, her brother, Ron Davis, and her brother-in-law Bill Allen.
Sherrie grew up in what was then the rural areas of Richardson, TX and had fond memories of helping to pick cotton, doing various chores, and helping care for her younger sisters and brother. A family not rich in the traditional sense, the Davises were rich in love and were giving beyond their means, always happy to set another place at the table. This is where Sherrie's giving spirit took root.
Sherrie graduated from Richardson High School, and in 1967 she met Bill Hines, whom she married on December 3, 1967 in Durant, OK. Together for nearly fifty years of marriage, they never stopped looking at each other like they were young and in love. Their life together was filled with the things they loved—travel, nature, Lake Texoma trips, wildflower trips, walks, concerts, and, always, family.
Bill and Sherrie began their family, raising their girls, first in Richardson, TX, and then in Plano, TX. The family found joy in traveling together, exploring nature on camping trips, taking road trips in their brown van, making yearly drives through the Texas hill country to see the wildflowers in bloom; Sherrie always made sure to pack the right snacks and goodies for traveling. As their family grew up, Sherrie and Bill continued to travel and loved hiking the mountains of Colorado, sifting in the sands of Florida or Mexico for shells, and always continuing to make those drives through the Texas hill country during wildflower season.
Sherrie was described by all who knew her as selfless and giving. She led by quiet example, putting others first and finding satisfaction in life through knowing she had helped. Shannon, Amy, and Carrie grew up always having the things they needed, the things they wanted, and the guidance to do for others as Sherrie always did.
Sherrie was loyal and protective of those she loved, wanting even in her last days to make sure her loved ones' needs were met, first and foremost. She watched and listened to everything, always making sure others were taken care of.
Even as Sherrie and Bill raised their own family, their extended families remained so important to them. Large gatherings and get-togethers weren't uncommon, and Sherrie was more than happy to make plans, host in their home, and cook—always from scratch. Sherrie and her siblings always made time for each others' birthdays and enjoyed "sista" outings and sleepovers. They were always there for one another, just as Ernest and Myrtle taught them.
Becoming a grandmother was such a source of pride for Sherrie; Grace, Connor, Audrey, and Owen were blessed with so many sleepovers and outings with Grandma and Granddad. Sherrie and Bill loved more than anything to cheer on the grandkids at their games, concerts, and various other activities; Sherrie loved and encouraged them each as the unique individuals they are. Sherrie and Bill loved being surrounded by their kids, sons-in-law, and grandkids; and their get-togethers always involved delicious meals, much laughter, and the telling and re-telling of family stories. Sherrie always knew exactly what favorite snacks and treats to have on hand for each person in the family. Sherrie loved being surrounded by laughter and joy; she usually found her place toward the corner of a gathering where she could sit and watch her family, interjecting her witty humor here and there, and never missing a thing.
Sherrie had a personal relationship with God. A Christian woman, she found joy in the comfort of hymns and fellowship. She valued the messages of doing unto others, honesty, and devotion.
Sherrie loved her work family, and the work she did in insurance underwriting gave her satisfaction; she spent her days hard at work for as long as her health allowed.
Sherrie was sentimental. The home that she and Bill shared holds the many things she held dear: tiny figures from travels or given by grandchildren; shells, rocks, and dried flowers; boxes of photos and keepsakes. Items that tell the story of a life that was filled with love, joy, laughter, and giving.
Sherrie's family invites all who loved her to join them in celebrating her life on Saturday, November 18 at 4:00 p.m. at St. Andrew United Methodist Church, 5801 W Plano Parkway, Plano, TX. The service will be held in Smith Worship Center, and please stay afterward for a reception in Piro Hall.
In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to The Lung Cancer Alliance, The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Society, or a non-profit of your choice.
