MONROE - On Friday, February 15, 2008, Sherman E. Harris, Monroe, joined his beloved wife Betty (3/17/06) in the eternal hereafter.
Sherman was born in Mineral Point, Wisconsin on June 9, 1939 and was the only child of Sherman Sr. and Pearl (Arthur) Harris. For most of his life Sherman was self-employed as a well-driller and later as a heating and refrigerator technician.
Sherman married Elizabeth Boyton on June 9, 1983 and they lived in rural Darlington and the Monroe area during their time together.
Sherman is survived by three children: Gary (Mary) Harris of Virginia, Julie Harris (Bob) of Edgerton and Holly Richards (Dan) of Monticello and a special family friend, Lisa. Sherman and Betty were the proud grandparents of Justin Harris, Nathan Richards, Shana Richards, Sarah Krause, Theresa Krause, Zachary Boyton, twins Brittany and Megan Boyton, and great-grandchild, Ryan Richards.
Sherm enjoyed the simple things in life: Walking his dog Gypsy, Wood working, traveling, fishing, telling a good story and spending time with his family.
He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. The family will hold a private memorial and they ask that in lieu of flowers or cards that you make a memorial to the American Cancer Society in his memory.
