May God be with you all. We did not know she was so sick. Travis kept calling her and left a message and she never returned the calls. Our heart goes out to all of her family. She is with Donnie and her parents now. We love you all. May God help you all and be with you. Travis and Lavina & Travis
Alice and I have so many memories of living on KWMA while Sherry and Donnie, our closest neighbors and best friends, lived in the “Rock House”. It was a special time when Sherry came to Alaska to visit us. May God wrap His arms around you three precious daughters and your families. Butch and Alice
On behalf of TPWD Hunter Education Program, I would like to express our sincere condolence to the Harmel family — who was Texas Parks & Wildlife through and through. The Harmels epitomize conservation of natural resources and the teaching the of next generations on how to be good stewards of the (Texas) landscape. We pray for Sherry and Donnie in Heaven and for the family, especially our good friend, instructor and partner, Mrs. Denise Harmel-Garza, who IS the standard for hunter education and shooting sports training throughout Texas. Blessings!
So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. Having recently lost my father in February, I know the sorrow and sadness you are experiencing. My sincerest condolences. I found peace, as you will, in the wonderful reunions they are experiencing with friends and family – especially with your dad. This makes me smile. I hope you find peace.
