Sherri Caldwell, a woman of effervescent personality and warm heart, passed away peacefully on the 9th of March, 2025. Born on the 9th of November, 1966, Sherri lived a life full of exuberance and unconditional love.
She was a beacon of light and joy to all those who knew her. Sherri’s vivacious, outgoing character touched many hearts throughout her life. Her radiant smile and joyful laughter created a warmth that will be greatly missed but fondly remembered.
An exceptional lesson Sherri left behind for us was her embodiment and demonstration of unconditional love. She made sure everyone around her knew what it felt like to be loved beyond measure, encouraging those who knew her to do the same with their own loved ones.
Sherri is survived by her loving family. Her daughters, Tiffany Caldwell and Tamara Freemen, learned the best of life’s lessons under Sherri’s loving guidance. Her son, Rusty Long, has inherited her undeniable strength and warmth. Sherri’s joy was multiplied by her beautiful grandchildren, Kaydrianna Chairs, Tempress Edwards, and De’Andre Edwards. Each carry within them a part of Sherri’s lively spirit and joyful heart. She is also survived by her sister, Patricia Trejo, with whom she shared many memorable experiences and an unbreakable bond.
Sherri’s departure leaves a void in our hearts, but her memories and teachings continue to inspire us. Her legacy of love and joy will forever echo in the lives of those who were fortunate to have been a part of her journey.

Our first memory of Sherri was of her mother, our dear friend Berneice, pushing her in a stroller by our house on Coyne Street, Miami, OK. She was a classmate of our older son and graduated, as he did, from Miami High School. Over the years, she lived in Arkansas, but returned to her Oklahoma roots many times. She shared stories with us of her children and spoke with such pride about her grands! We know Sherri had difficult days and many challenges, but she always found joy in the moment and never stopped believing in the promise of tomorrow. God bless you, Honey. May you rest in peace.
She was the love of my life and my everything. I love you to the stars and miss you Sherri. Always and forever baby.
Sherry, I am just having a really hard time believing that you’re no longer with us. You are an awesome friend had so much fun working with you. I’m really glad that God put you in my life you loved your children and grandchildren with all of your heart. You will be miss my friend.
Tiffany and Rusty,
You mother and I went back a long way to when Tiffany and Katie were in kindergarten together at Asbell. I always enjoyed talking to your mother whenever I saw her. We always talked about you two. I am sorry for your loss.
