Frank Sherrill, 85 years old, passed from this life on Sunday, December 11, 2016. He was a lifelong resident of Coffee County and lived in the Rutledge Hill Community. He was preceded in death by his loving wife of more than 50 years Louise, his parents Arthur and Mary Etta Sherrill, his brothers Albert (Mildred), Sherman (Maxine), and Hubert (Jean) Sherrill, and his grandson Richie McClanahan. He is survived by his son Estill Sherrill (Louise) and daughters Susan Sherrill and Barbara McClanahan (Rick) of Memphis, TN. Frank held a special place in his heart for his only grandchild McKenzie Alexandra McClanahan.

Frank was a man of few words, great service and a tender heart. He was the loving caretaker for his wife for more than 30 years after she suffered a debilitating illness. He often performed anonymous acts of kindness for others. He also loved animals, especially dogs, and had treats readily available just in case a dog happened to come in his yard.

Frank had an inquisitive spirit that led him to explore many things. He enjoyed figuring out how things worked and could often be found working on automobiles and small engines. He also fully embraced technology, computers and the internet, frequently viewing web cams and newspapers from distance cities and far off lands. He particularly enjoyed learning about cultures, practices and activities in other cities.

Frank retired from Carrier Corporation where he had a strong work ethic and commitment to high quality work. He was generous with his humor and often came up with playful nicknames for those around him. Most importantly he was a devoted and loving husband, father and grandfather who lived his life first and foremost for Christ.

While his family will miss him terribly, they are lifted up with gratitude for his love and his Christian life. Abiding by his request a graveside service will be held at the Rutledge Hill Community Cemetery. For those who wish to make memorial donations, the family suggests directing them to Ronald MacDonald House or the charity of your choice.
