Sherry Ann Forbush

Sherry Forbush

Aurora, Utah

Sherry Ann Hunt Forbush, 61, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family and loved ones on Tuesday, August 5, 2014 in Provo after many years of severe health struggles and trials. She looked forward to the reunion with her Heavenly Father, her Savior, and many others who preceded her in death, particularly her parents and brother Stan. She has been freed from her mortal struggles and has moved on to continue serving and teaching those on the other side of the veil. We loved her dearly and a little piece of our hearts went with her when she left us.

Sherry married Steve Forbush in the Manti Temple on April 19, 1974 and always loved serving in the temple. They raised their three children in Aurora and made many close friends who she loved dearly and enjoyed many days and late laughing nights at club. She was born March 20, 1953 in Richfield, Utah to Gerald Devon and Betsy Jean Rogers Hunt and was raised in Glenwood and Richfield. She was a devoted daughter, sister, mother, aunt, and friend who loved her family and friends deeply and enjoyed her time with them.

Sherry was an avid flower gardener and loved cooking. She was known for her amazing pies and taffy. She loved the outdoors and enjoyed going on 4-wheeler rides. She enjoyed traveling around the country with her sweetheart and thoroughly enjoyed Florida and anywhere with a beach and water.

She lived to serve others and was asked to serve throughout her life in many Church callings and thoroughly enjoyed teaching the Gospel. She loved the Lord and spent many hours studying and pondering His words and teachings in the scriptures. She served many years as PTA president and always enjoyed helping in school programs.

Her family is very thankful for the many kind and loving friends, neighbors, and healthcare professionals who provided many hours of care to her over her life and significantly during her last several years of trials and health challenges. She was loved by all that knew her and will be greatly missed.

Sherry is survived by her husband Steve, Aurora; children: Mike (Marcy) Forbush, Axtel; Jeramiah (Torey) Forbush, Lehi; Leslie Forbush, Aurora; grandchildren: Micah and Logan Forbush; KyLee, Calie, and Cole Forbush; Akir and Maliq Rowe; siblings: Doris (Tim) Bastian, Glen (Norma) Hunt, all Aurora; Devon (Jodi) Hunt, Monroe; and Richard (Melani) Hunt, Auburn, Wash.
