Featuring Sherry Burri

Sherry Burri has been working at the Funeral Home for over 20 years. She began her career at the Funeral Home with Jon Ford at J.L. Ford Funeral Home in Blenheim. When we purchased the Blenheim Funeral Home from Jon Ford , we were fortunate enough to have Sherry join our team! Sherry (nee Pokornik) was born and raised in Blenheim, and as such, she knows just about everyone in the Blenheim area. She worked diligently and patiently through the numerous renovations we have done at the Blenheim Funeral Home and continues to work passionately and tirelessly any day, night, weekday or weekend we call her in.  No matter the day, or the hour, Sherry always arrives to work with a smile (assuming you have a coffee ready for her!). Sherry’s natural warmth, organizational skills, work ethic, and creative talents  make her the perfect person to highlight first. Thank you, Sherry!
