SHERMAN HALES passing

Donation protected
For the passing of SHERMAN HALE, On August 6, 2023 **UPDATE**; They said his organs shut down which cause him to have a heart attack… I lost my everything that day, my husband, my best friend, the love of my life. I truly apologize if I have not gotten a hold of everyone, i’m trying.

I’m so sorry I have to ask for help, I just don’t know what else to do… the financial hardship is just enormous and over the last few months our savings i
has been depleted. So many things left undone, and so many things coming in, it’s so hard to try to handle the logistical task that accompany this in so many ways while in the state of mind of grieving. Now that he’s not here, though, I honestly don’t want to think about these things right now but I have to, as he would tell me to put my big girl pants on and take care of it.. So before winter things I have to get done hopefully, stop the back door from leaking, the two bedroom windows from leaking, the wood stove chimney leaks in the front room and the fumigation for termites as their droppings just reminded me, etc, etc. I really don’t know what I will I do without him.. For those who knew Sherman knows a lot of his medical problems he’s been having. That poor man every time he turned around something else was going wrong with his body for the last few years. First his hips, got one done. This last year/ beginning of this year, he had 7 fractures and still got up and went to work almost everyday! The only thing that helped him heal was all that rain, it made him stay home. I was never so happy to see rain! For the last six months or so he’s really really been having a hard time with his hips and his hands, with severe arthritis and carpal tunnel! He hasn’t been able to worked much this last year as most of his customers know, but the last six months was even worse. He would get up some mornings and not be able to open his hands or not being able to walk, this truly frustrated him! He wasn’t able to take care of his customers the way he felt they should be taken care of! Which led to him getting upset and more depressed. He couldn’t do one of the thing he loved most, his job! Taking care of his customers, he truly cared for each and everyone of them. He would of bent over backwards for anyone of them, as he would for any loved ones, family and friends. Honestly, you didn’t even have to know him…if you were broke, broke down, if you needed help in anyway Sherman would be there, didn’t matter who you were… He was the most kind hearted, giving man I ever met. I miss him so very much, I’ve never hurt like this, I just cannot picture life without him! Again, I’m sorry for asking for help, but this is the only thing I can think of doing, for I’m disabled, and cannot work. Please anything will help anything!!
I would like to thank you in advance, and also tell you how much those wonderful words or stories about my husband from everyone that I talk to truly warmed my heart!
