Sherry Denise Hulsey Stiltner was born on November 18, 1961, in Nashville, Tennessee, to the late Kenneth and Velma Darks Duggins. She passed away on July 18, 2026, leaving behind a lifetime of love, compassion, and devotion to her family.
In addition to her parents, Sherry was preceded in death by her brother, Sean Duggins.

Above all else, Sherry treasured the time she spent with those she loved. Whether surrounded by family, caring for others, or simply enjoying the companionship of her beloved cat, Brodie, she found joy in making others feel loved and cared for. She will be remembered for her selfless heart, unwavering dedication to her family, and the compassion she extended to everyone she met.
Sherry’s memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who were blessed to know and love her.
