Sheri Ann McCray Foster
On Sunday, June 12, 2022, our beloved Sheri Ann McCray Foster peacefully
passed away surrounded by family members and is now with her Heavenly
Father.
A celebration of her life will be on Monday, June 20, 2022. Visitation will
begin at 2:00pm with the funeral service at 3:00pm at The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints, 3000 Old North Road, Denton, TX.
A Flow Memorial Hospital baby and life-long Denton girl, Sheri graduated from Denton High School,
NTSU (UNT) and received her master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from TWU. She will be
remembered for her kindness and love for everyone she met during her lifetime. She dearly loved
her family and friends and would say so often.
Sheri had a lifelong love of music and dance which led to her many years as a majorette at DHS and
NTSU. In all levels of her education, she earned awards, both academic and for her talents. She was
also a Chi Omega. She was a wonderful and caring teacher to numerous pre-K students and
kindergartners in her teaching career. Sheri relished seeing their little faces when the "light bulb
came on"! Her creative mind led her down many paths - she loved to stitch and sew, play the piano
or guitar and sing. She also decorated everything in sight for the holidays! She endeared herself to
everyone, was compassionate, fair and stood up for what she believed to be right and true -
personally and professionally.
Her parents, Ernest A and Virginia McCray, took the family on memorable vacations to Colorado,
Wyoming, California and Canada where she loved to ride horses and appreciate the beauty of God’s
creations. Sheri had a deep and abiding faith from an early age. She was a member of The Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she faithfully served as a teacher and leader in children's and
youth programs for many decades as well as being a long-time advisor to Lambda Delta Sigma
university women. She loved to travel with numerous trips to Hawaii, Utah and other places.
Sheri is survived by her devoted husband of 47 years, Jeff Foster, sons Jeffery Lee Foster, Golden
Brant Foster, Forrest Taylor Foster, his wife Rachel, and their sons Elliott and Quinton. Also, her
brother, Ernie McCray, her sister-in-law Debbie Henderson and
nieces and nephews.
In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been established to defray
the astronomical expenses incurred during the months of hospital
ICU stays that Sheri endured.
