Doris Maye Sherman

On October 4, 2019, Doris Maye Sherman, 90, surrounded by her family, danced through heaven’s gates, into the arms of her beloved Jesus and Jesse.

Doris married Jesse J. Sherman (Jake) on Christmas, 1954 in Gillette, Wy. Together, they ventured into many businesses. Adding to the interstate trucking companies, was their final venture - Restway Travel Park. Doris enjoyed meeting new people and serving the public. She continued to work into her late 80’s.
Performing as a soloist, as well as playing piano and the organ were among Doris’ talents. Her greatest passion was sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ and his salvation plan to everyone. Her faith was strong and unwavering regardless of what life’s challenges held.
