Hey Lamont, It’s Chrystal- Sherries sister 🥹 I want to thank you for making this, it’s easy for us to forget the older days with her and how she was. Her voice - raspy 😆 it was so harsh. You are correct, Jose, Melissa and Riley are her kids names and Jose is in the military- he lives in Texas on base now with a baby of his own 🥰Riley is her spitting image, sassy, raspy voice and all. Melissa is 💯 her mothers child. So many similar traits and she looks so much like her. They are all great kids 😍I can confirm, she didn’t commit suicide. It was ruled undetermined/suspicious. But it seems more as a very unfortunate accident. Unfortunately though, we will never really know the full truth. I love the memories you shared about her, and for my mom. Yes, her disease was Huntingtons disease. She was in the end stages then. I know that we don’t want to believe that certain things happen when and how they did. But sadly, it is true. She was a lost soul and one of the best people I’ve ever known. 12/5/17, the worst day of our lives. She always spoke so highly of you. I want to share with you that she spoke often about going to meet up with you out of state and that you guys were going to travel, she had this whole plan. Sadly though, I didn’t believe her. I thought it was another one of her mental heath things where she beloved things that didn’t actually happen, because that did happened a lot. The last time I remember her saying anything about that was a couple months before she passed. Thank you so much for visiting her and for sharing how wonderful of a person she was. The last few months of her life I started recording our conversations, with the hope of getting some doctor to agree that she needed help and get her to see that her mind was slipping away. We took small pieces of a conversation and made a video for her funeral. It was important for me to make sure her kids never forgot her voice or her laugh. Your welcome to go find it. I think it’s called Sherry Mitchell memorial video or something like that. May bring you a little happiness to hear her voice. Anyway, I just want to make sure you knew how special you were to her and how much she loved you. You were her favorite best friend.
WOW! Just wow. I'm almost speechless. What a story of a great human experience. Sooo incredibly touching and just. R E A L! I'm so glad to learn of the respect between these two people and the love (not a romantic kind) but humanly love between these two people is just so heartwarming. I'm sorry for your loss of your sister. And huge hugs an condolences to LAMONT. Thanks for sharing such realness of life and how it touches us....deeply. You sir are a fascinating great man. 👍 💞💔❤️🩹
My best and dearest friend in the world, Judy Freeman, passed away in 2013 from cancer. We were close friends from the time we were 15 years old and I'm now 65. I still miss her so much and want to call her, but have dreams about her and we talk in those dreams. You never forget a good friend. Thanks for sharing your story.
Lamont when a hummingbird comes around you, that means somebody who has passed to another side, is visiting you. That was her. Thabk you for sharing that story with us. And I think when she held you and you couldn’t explain what you felt, it was that you knew it was somebody who truly cared how you felt. She had an unconditional friendship with you. ❤❤ she knows you didn’t have her join you because you are a caring person as well and some other guys would have invited her and not cared what happened to her on the road. But you aren’t like that. You are good people too!! 🙏❤️
Yep. I used to have 2 hummingbirds come around daily. They would get so close to my face we were like nose to nose. I was terrified to move and they just hovered then flew away..they were my grandparents. The day I had a panic attack outside they came out of nowhere..thank you for that confirmation.
Thank you for sharing, Lamont. Sorry for the loss of your dear friend, Sherry. May she and her mom Rest in Heavenly Peace, and may she live in your heart always. ❤🙏
One of my best friends has been clean for 8 years now but was in the grip of it for several years. Can’t say the same for another friend I lost to drugs years back.
I ran screaming away from the love of my life due to addiction. I could see that staying together would end up with one, the other, or both of us ending up in jail, or even DEAD. I couldn't fix him, and I loved him far too much to stay and be a part of that. It wasn't that I feared death personally. I wasn't willing to enable his destruction.
Most addicts were/are good people that are just in way over their heads. Unfortunately that need for a chemical brings out the worst in people. I'm a recovering addict myself but I tried to maintain my morals when I was in active addiction. I wouldn't rob or steal from others just to get my fix. If I couldn't get it I just couldn't get it but there aren't many that can say that.
I don’t comment much but what you said about with you as a guy, getting comfort from sleeping next to a woman who is just a friend, is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard. I know that telling about things like that is not your normal and may have been a little uncomfortable, but thank you for sharing that. It’s something I’ll never forget. Warm regards
She seems like the type of friend that no matter how much time has went by since the last time you spoke, the connection is always still there. You can tell by the way you spoke about Sherry and the smile you had, you'll always remember the night you slept next to her. Rest in paradise Sherry.
I don't think I've ever had the opportunity to hear a man speak so genuinely about feelings for a woman. You are a very sweet person Lamont , thank you for sharing something so personal.
Sorry Lamont. It is very sad. Wait til you hit your 60's, the losses start really adding up. Thanks for so eloquently sharing this very personal story. Love and prayers. 💕🙏
@@dianemakarevitz798 Tell me about it...I believe I have more loved ones on the other side than on this one...I tell my grandkids, I would ring them all back...Even the ones who were a pain in the butt...My kids laugh...They know I mean my sister who made sure to make my life a pain...LOL...
Sleeping next to a friend is very special.. i did it 2 times.. im 57.. I knew somewhat how you felt...Thank you for a very special video.. RIP 🌹 Sherrie...♥
Friends come and go in our lives. Some stay, some wander away, some pass away but every one of them touched a part of our soul. This was a profound monument to your friend. Brilliant tribute. Thank you, Lamont.
Bittersweet story. I can tell you right now, if I was a person that had passed away and you did a video like this so that my son could listen to your perspectives about the type of person that I was to you...I would be so grateful and honored that I meant enough to you and that you took the time to memorialize our friendship. I do hope her children see and hear your video. RIP to your friend Sherry. 🤗♥💞
Sorry to hear about your friend Lamont. Apparently she was suffering from Huntington’s Chorea as stated on her sister's go fund me page to help with funeral costs. Lamont you obviously cherished this lady by how you have recalled memories of her and she sounded like a beautiful human being x
That was awesome. I too had a friend like that who died in 2007. Looking back, she was the only person who understood me. I moved away and was not around when she passed. I visited her grave about a year later but had no idea where she was buried in a nearby town. When I got out of my car, I walked about 10 steps and looked down. There was her name on a marker. It was like I was led there.
I had a good friend who was accidentally struck and killed by a car two weeks ago. He had been walking in the dense fog just before dawn along what he had apparently thought was the freeway shoulder only to have actually wandered out into the fast lane. He was only 30 years old. He tried to get and stay sober for many years but his family finally had to walk away after he had checked himself out of rehab for the final time just before his death. On his good days he was a wonderful person and a very generous guy who was always ready with a quick joke or a hug when everyone was down.
@@DrLuke49I’m so sorry for your loss and I hope you find peace in your heart 💜 I’m sorry for everyone here who knows what it feels like to miss someone you’ll never forget in a million years. I know 💔
I just looked up her obituary she looked like a sweet soul. So sad. I just recently found out 2 of my close friends died 12 years ago and it hit me pretty hard. Unfortunately you lose track of friends and even family but it’s still hard when they’re gone.
Lamont, As I was listening to your story about your friend Sherry. This quote came to mind in memory of Sherry as follows. " I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love." - Leo Buscaglia
Unfortunately it sounds like her mom had Huntingtons disease which is a breakdown of nerve cells to the brain which causes it hard to speak and other problems. May they both rest in peace🙏
@T4Christ777, I found an old Go Fund Me, started by one of Sherry’s sisters,for Sherry’s burial expenses. Anyway, it was noted that Sherry had Huntington’s, and since it is an inherited disease, I believe that you’re correct about her mom having it. Such a sad story. May they both rest in peace.
She sounded like a cool and loyal friend. I imagine this is a real mind f**k for you. This past summer, I found out that my first boyfriend, from back in highschool, had died a year prior so I missed his funeral. It's been surreal realizing he's no longer on this earthly realm. I keep remembering how his eyes literally sparkled, and now they're gone forever. It's been messing with my head.
I never heard that b4 but yeah that's spiritual. I always think of my father when I see a Robin redbreast. My father died at 53 and that's how many likes you had b4 I made it 54 which was the house number of my father's childhood home. Coincidence or a sign who knows.
He’s a good spirited person, and he really misses his friend. May God continue to comfort you Lamont. It hurts us when we lose someone who loves us genuinely.
Thank you for sharing Sherry with us. This was beautiful. It is hard to see your friends die, especially young. My childhood friend was shot to death January 10, 2020. I was thinking of him on the anniversary a few days ago. You never forget them.
I lost my daddy 20 yrs ago on January 9th. I always wish I could sleep right thru that day and wake up on January 10th so it doesn't have to hurt so bad every year
I had 2 friends murdered in az. Was landmark case, caught the murderer 20+ yrs later in Florida. I still think about them & the way they died just tears me up. I seen them the night before they were murdered. 14&16 yrs old. So unfair. I'm a mom & gramma now and I watch like a hawk now because of this.
A very touching story and it’s obvious you are still affected and emotional about her passing. Praying she is at rest and thank you for allowing us in.
You know what Lamont I think you did see her ! it was her last goodbye ,that`s why you couldn`t find her ,thank you for sharing this beautiful part of your life RIP beautiful lady x
What a beautiful tribute. She sounded like a friend we all want to have. Seems like she loved you too. Whenever a girl asks a handsome man if he wants to “meet”, her friend… she’s waiting for you to protest your undying love for her. Truth. Also, thank you for the funny memories you provoked with the party line. I nearly forgot. Love and light Lamont 🫶🏼
The sad part about the cycle of life, you live and you die. The two things that everyone will do. I am a person who is always distraught about deaths. It’s hard losing people you love!! My condolences Lamont!
Lamont, I can hear how much loved her. I’m in tears myself, I can hear the emotion in your voice. She sounds like a beautiful, sweet woman. She’s up there smiling down, not hurting anymore.
Never heard of a party line on a cellphone. Awe Sherry was someone with a big heart and she had her hands full with being a caregiver and being a mom. OKAY: on 18:18 does anyone else see resemblance of skeleton's feet as the root of the tree. She was there for you when you needed to get over a fractured heart. It bad when we do the if I could of should of, because we regretting something we feel would have made a difference. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the new year.
Lamont the little hummingbird was her saying that she loved you too. I’m so sorry for your loss and your story was so sweet thank you for sharing it with us. ❤
Sorry for your loss Lamont. Sounds like she was a good woman. In the long run we all have issues in life. Strange way to die. Thanks Lamont for sharing such a sad story. Rip Sherry. 💐
Thank You for sharing. There is nothing you could have done. You were a good friend. That hummingbird was a sign that she was there for you ( I like to think that). ps...I recall the party line!! I did it in the mid 80's!!
Lamont thank you for sharing about your friend. I had a good friend who passed Jan. 5th, 2024. He was my first love. We never married but he helped me to overcome depression. Our lives went in different directions but always came back to say hello. Angels touch us in many ways. I enjoy your work and friendship on line. Keep up the good work! ❤
So sad to hear this story Lamont, she sounded like a great friend from hearing your story and it was nice of you to memorialize her the way you did by honoring her memory and telling us what she meant to you, R.I.P. Sherry and her mother.
I usually don't comment. I'm just a silent watcher. But this hit me hard. You could hear the pain in your voice. But I lost my best friend on Sept 30 23 from a heart attack she was 41. So I can tell the pain you must of felt and or are feeling now. She sounded like she would of been a cool ass friend to have.. I'm sorry for your loss. May she rip
This was the most special person that you ever covered on your channel. Thank you Sherry for being part of Lamont's life. And thank you Lamont for sharing your relationship with her. Everyone we meet or know has either a positive or negative impact upon our lives. By the way you were talking, she definitely had a positive impact on you. Part of who you are today, as a person, is because of her. Let her light continue to shine on through you and all those she has left behind.
Lamont, you are a sweet, sensitive soul! Sorry for your loss. I hope she is resting in peace. Thanks for sharing! That was a touching tribute from you to her. 💞💔
You a good soul Lamont.... I'm almost 100 percent sure Sherry knows and Happy to see you still remember her today with much love. Lossing friends is very difficult and sad. when is Family even worse, keep it the good work Lamont I'm a Trucker and listen to your stories all the time. Stay Safe
I TOTALLY remember that party line - 😆. I THOUGHT you looked familiar - I recall talking to a sweet security guard at a Vegas hotel, I remember your beautiful eyes!
I'm so sorry for your loss Lamont. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us, this is exactly why I love watching you. You are so real. I'm so happy for you to have had such a wonderful friend in your life.
Lamont I've never seen you so emotional almost wth tears in your eyes..youncan see the love you had for your friend... So sorry for the loss... May she rest in peace..
Hey Lamont... I'm sorry for your loss. It's evident that, "SHERRIE" had a very special place in your heart. You wouldn't have made a 30+ minute video and shared with the world, if she didn't mean SO MUCH. I feel that pain... believe me. You're in that age range now, where people you know or met on your journeys thru life... will start dying for one reason or another. "SHERRIE" was young and a MOTHER of at least one minor child when she passed. SO, I know there's a lot more to her story. She lost her mother and, "SHERRIE's" children lost their mother... that's very SAD at best!! LIFE is NEVER easy to navigate. It's like constantly trying to find a safe place in a storm that never ends. Some days the storm subsides... and other days, it relentlessly batters you. AND all you're trying to do is stay afloat. I lived outside of VEGAS for a time - was in and out of that city for years; also lived in CALIFORNIA ( Hollywood, Burbank, Merced, Toluca Lake, Redondo, etc); and TEXAS too ( I was stationed there in DALLAS, and SAN ANTONIO) - lived all over the nation. Regarding "SHERRIE'S" death... did U ever see the coroner's report?? Having worked in the medical field, I know an autopsy was performed. AND there's always a TOXICOLOGY REPORT. It's very specific and lists EVERY FOREIGN SUBSTANCE she'd consumed. Hair follicle tests are usually performed also. Anyway, if she was found in "THE BADLANDS" and died from hanging in the manner in which you described... SOMETHING'S AMISS. Did U happen to travel to where they found her?? In any event... I'm sorry for your loss as well as her family's loss.
Lamont... it was "WETLANDS" in Vegas that she was found. And based on her history of mental illness... it does seem like a TRAGIC ACCIDENT! RIP SHERRIE!
Lamont, thank you for sharing Sherry with us! I pray she is dancing with angels right now and your memory of her keeps her alive just the same. I am thinking you did see her when you thought you saw her.. that was her way of telling you goodbye. People visit us! After my mom died she came to me one night and it was insane! I remember it like it was yesterday and it was 24 yrs ago. Just know that you are very special to her too and you got to be saved by an angel no doubt! And she will be there to greet you some day! ❤
I looked her up and found her obituary. She looked like a kind and friendly person. You have fond memories of her and she lives on in your heart. Rest in peace, Sherry.
Lamont I'm so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful story. I can hear the utter heartbreak in your voice and it's so painful to hear your hurt. 😢❤❤❤❤❤❤ RIP SHERRY MITCHELL❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lamont you told this story so well. What an amazing friend she must have been. You brought her life alive in your video. Thank you for sharing Brother.
This one hit deep,Lamont...thank u for sharing. 2000, 1,2,3 seems just like yesterday to me, and I was around 23 then. This woman was a beautiful soul, sorry for your loss...I 💔
My deepest sympathy of the death of your friend, Sherry Mitchell. It's good to know that she was able to help you at the time of your need. She sounds like she was a good friend. She was so young when she died. I had a friend that died at the same age of 36. I do sometimes feel guilty that she passed away and I'm still living. I know she is watching over you. RIP Sherry 🕊️
That was a hell of an episode in memoriam of yr friend - it was obviously tough to do & you did it with both style and compassion. She would be proud of you. Thank you for letting us in on this special part of yr life. With love to an Angel. Luv ya Lamont.
Thank you for sharing Lamont. You had a beautiful connection with Sherry. When you share that kind of connection please know that she is with you. You didn't get to travel together before ......but you are now.
So sorry for your loss, Lamont😢 You didn’t have to share such a personal time in your life, but it was so touching and it was part of what makes you who you are today. She was obviously a very compassionate person and you are too. Blessings🙏🥰
You are a great story teller Lamont. But sometimes they feel especially sad. I am so sorry you lost your close friend. She must have been a truly good soul! 😔 Stay safe!
By watching you tell this story, you can see she was significant in your life. So nice to hear a man express kindly about a woman in a non sexual way

@T4Christ777, I found an old Go Fund Me, started by one of Sherry’s sisters,for Sherry’s burial expenses. Anyway, it was noted that Sherry had Huntington’s, and since it is an inherited disease, I believe that you’re correct about her mom having it. Such a sad story. May they both rest in peace.
I love how gentle you are with your thoughts and words, Lamont. You’re a wonderful part of Sherry’s legacy. 🤗❤️😊
What a beautiful thing to say.❤
I hope when I pass on, I have someone like you telling goofy fun stories of my life. ❤❤❤❤
Aww I'm sorry for your loss. I hear the hurt in your voice. You did her well by honoring her this way. She's smiling down at you 🌻
Definitely true.
Brother, this one was hard to hear. So glad you always called her" friend," she needed that. Always.
You speak so highly of her, she sounds like a beautiful soul. My condolences 💔♥️
She sounded like a cool and loyal friend. I imagine this is a real mind f**k for you. This past summer, I found out that my first boyfriend, from back in highschool, had died a year prior so I missed his funeral. It's been surreal realizing he's no longer on this earthly realm. I keep remembering how his eyes literally sparkled, and now they're gone forever. It's been messing with my head.
go help someone you'll feel better. there's even white people studies that exemplify this fact.
Pray for the Almighty forgiveness to his soul as you both were partners in crime
can you see my comment above? very few white people can have any idea what you're talking about, even.@@mysteriousjz
Sorry for your loss!
@childrenofgodministriesnyc1246 you sound uneducated
Lamont!! A hummingbird as you are thinking of someone dear to you who has passed means that person is there with you!!! That’s incredible!
I never heard that b4 but yeah that's spiritual.
I always think of my father when I see a Robin redbreast.
My father died at 53 and that's how many likes you had b4 I made it 54 which was the house number of my father's childhood home.
Coincidence or a sign who knows.
I said the same thing when I saw it.
Ĺmao
I heard it was a cardinal....but oh well.
I read these are superstitions, fantasies of something that we humans have no control of... srry
He’s a good spirited person, and he really misses his friend. May God continue to comfort you Lamont. It hurts us when we lose someone who loves us genuinely.
That’s sad man. Sucks she didn’t keep in touch as often bro, sometimes your friends can literally save your life if you just keep in touch
Thank you for sharing Sherry with us. This was beautiful. It is hard to see your friends die, especially young. My childhood friend was shot to death January 10, 2020. I was thinking of him on the anniversary a few days ago. You never forget them.
I lost my daddy 20 yrs ago on January 9th. I always wish I could sleep right thru that day and wake up on January 10th so it doesn't have to hurt so bad every year
I had 2 friends murdered in az. Was landmark case, caught the murderer 20+ yrs later in Florida. I still think about them & the way they died just tears me up. I seen them the night before they were murdered. 14&16 yrs old. So unfair. I'm a mom & gramma now and I watch like a hawk now because of this.
@@mindyhetrick9273I'm so sorry you had to experience this! It always hurts.
Love you Lamont. Thank you for always remaining so kind and humbled. Been riding with you since the beginning, so proud of you.❤
Man I never thought I'd tear up listening to Lamont tell a story but here I am.🥹
RIP Sherry. I’m so sorry for your loss Lamont. I lost my husband in 2020 and no it does not get easier. You just keep pushing on❤
Sorry for your loss Lamont, you will always have the cherished memory of her.
You brought me to tears. Rest in peace Sherry. You're a good man Lamont.
A very touching story and it’s obvious you are still affected and emotional about her passing. Praying she is at rest and thank you for allowing us in.
You know what Lamont I think you did see her ! it was her last goodbye ,that`s why you couldn`t find her ,thank you for sharing this beautiful part of your life RIP beautiful lady x
Beautiful story; sometimes people come in and go out without a cause as to why they left. So sorry she has left.
Damn brother, you are an authentic human. We definitely feel your pain as we watch, keep living for your loved ones.
I'm so sorry for your loss Lamont. Sherry sounds like such a beautiful person. May she and her mother rest in peace.
What a beautiful tribute. She sounded like a friend we all want to have. Seems like she loved you too. Whenever a girl asks a handsome man if he wants to “meet”, her friend… she’s waiting for you to protest your undying love for her. Truth. Also, thank you for the funny memories you provoked with the party line. I nearly forgot. Love and light Lamont 🫶🏼
That is a heartfelt story.
So very very sorry for your loss..it's hard to lose someone that made a mark in your life.
What a beautiful, bittersweet and tragic story, Lamont. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss Lamont I could hear the emotion in your voice when you talked about her.
The sad part about the cycle of life, you live and you die. The two things that everyone will do. I am a person who is always distraught about deaths. It’s hard losing people you love!! My condolences Lamont!
So sorry for your loss. She was a special lady.
😊 Glad i ran into this posting,Lamont is special. Hopefully, he will find another special lady .
Lamont, I can hear how much loved her. I’m in tears myself, I can hear the emotion in your voice. She sounds like a beautiful, sweet woman. She’s up there smiling down, not hurting anymore.
My condolences, Lamont. Yes, good friends are hard to find.
Lamont, I feel you pain, bro! Sending prayers your way and may she rest in peace.
Never heard of a party line on a cellphone. Awe Sherry was someone with a big heart and she had her hands full with being a caregiver and being a mom. OKAY: on 18:18 does anyone else see resemblance of skeleton's feet as the root of the tree. She was there for you when you needed to get over a fractured heart. It bad when we do the if I could of should of, because we regretting something we feel would have made a difference. Thanks for sharing and blessings to you and all in the new year.
Sherry & her Mom passed so young! Sorry for your loss Lamont😢
This is a very beautiful story Lamont . I’m so sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself.
Lamont the little hummingbird was her saying that she loved you too. I’m so sorry for your loss and your story was so sweet thank you for sharing it with us. ❤
Sorry for your loss Lamont. Sounds like she was a good woman. In the long run we all have issues in life. Strange way to die. Thanks Lamont for sharing such a sad story. Rip Sherry. 💐
Thank You for sharing. There is nothing you could have done. You were a good friend. That hummingbird was a sign that she was there for you ( I like to think that). ps...I recall the party line!! I did it in the mid 80's!!
You're so kind Lamont you have a humble heart ♥
Lamont thank you for sharing about your friend. I had a good friend who passed Jan. 5th, 2024. He was my first love. We never married but he helped me to overcome depression. Our lives went in different directions but always came back to say hello. Angels touch us in many ways. I enjoy your work and friendship on line. Keep up the good work! ❤
Those are the special loves in our lives. The ones that hurt our hearts just a little deeper.
So sad to hear this story Lamont, she sounded like a great friend from hearing your story and it was nice of you to memorialize her the way you did by honoring her memory and telling us what she meant to you, R.I.P. Sherry and her mother.
I usually don't comment. I'm just a silent watcher. But this hit me hard. You could hear the pain in your voice. But I lost my best friend on Sept 30 23 from a heart attack she was 41. So I can tell the pain you must of felt and or are feeling now. She sounded like she would of been a cool ass friend to have.. I'm sorry for your loss. May she rip
This was the most special person that you ever covered on your channel. Thank you Sherry for being part of Lamont's life. And thank you Lamont for sharing your relationship with her. Everyone we meet or know has either a positive or negative impact upon our lives. By the way you were talking, she definitely had a positive impact on you. Part of who you are today, as a person, is because of her. Let her light continue to shine on through you and all those she has left behind.
What a great story. I have had a very similar exprience. They will always be a part of our lives that left their mark.
Lamont, you are a sweet, sensitive soul! Sorry for your loss. I hope she is resting in peace. Thanks for sharing! That was a touching tribute from you to her. 💞💔
So sorry for your lost. I lost a friend due to a freak accident two years ago, and I certainly know how you feel. RIP 🕊🕊
You a good soul Lamont.... I'm almost 100 percent sure Sherry knows and Happy to see you still remember her today with much love. Lossing friends is very difficult and sad. when is Family even worse, keep it the good work Lamont I'm a Trucker and listen to your stories all the time.
Stay Safe
I TOTALLY remember that party line - 😆. I THOUGHT you looked familiar - I recall talking to a sweet security guard at a Vegas hotel, I remember your beautiful eyes!
I'm so sorry for your loss Lamont. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us, this is exactly why I love watching you. You are so real. I'm so happy for you to have had such a wonderful friend in your life.
Time moves on so quickly, and before you know it, your life is over. Cherish every moment.
Lamont I've never seen you so emotional almost wth tears in your eyes..youncan see the love you had for your friend... So sorry for the loss... May she rest in peace..
This legit broke my heart for you. I have tears in my eyes as I write this. You’re one of my favorites. Just know that. Sending you big hugs. ❤
Hey Lamont... I'm sorry for your loss. It's evident that, "SHERRIE" had a very special place in your heart. You wouldn't have made a 30+ minute video and shared with the world, if she didn't mean SO MUCH. I feel that pain... believe me. You're in that age range now, where people you know or met on your journeys thru life... will start dying for one reason or another. "SHERRIE" was young and a MOTHER of at least one minor child when she passed. SO, I know there's a lot more to her story. She lost her mother and, "SHERRIE's" children lost their mother... that's very SAD at best!! LIFE is NEVER easy to navigate. It's like constantly trying to find a safe place in a storm that never ends. Some days the storm subsides... and other days, it relentlessly batters you. AND all you're trying to do is stay afloat. I lived outside of VEGAS for a time - was in and out of that city for years; also lived in CALIFORNIA ( Hollywood, Burbank, Merced, Toluca Lake, Redondo, etc); and TEXAS too ( I was stationed there in DALLAS, and SAN ANTONIO) - lived all over the nation. Regarding "SHERRIE'S" death... did U ever see the coroner's report?? Having worked in the medical field, I know an autopsy was performed. AND there's always a TOXICOLOGY REPORT. It's very specific and lists EVERY FOREIGN SUBSTANCE she'd consumed. Hair follicle tests are usually performed also. Anyway, if she was found in "THE BADLANDS" and died from hanging in the manner in which you described... SOMETHING'S AMISS. Did U happen to travel to where they found her?? In any event... I'm sorry for your loss as well as her family's loss.
Lamont... it was "WETLANDS" in Vegas that she was found. And based on her history of mental illness... it does seem like a TRAGIC ACCIDENT! RIP SHERRIE!
Bless you lamont you loved her as a great friend.
I’m so very sorry for the loss of your dear friend Sherry, sounds like she was a kindred spirit to you. You told her story beautifully
Lamont, thank you for sharing Sherry with us! I pray she is dancing with angels right now and your memory of her keeps her alive just the same. I am thinking you did see her when you thought you saw her.. that was her way of telling you goodbye. People visit us! After my mom died she came to me one night and it was insane! I remember it like it was yesterday and it was 24 yrs ago. Just know that you are very special to her too and you got to be saved by an angel no doubt! And she will be there to greet you some day! ❤
Kimberly - well said ! 😮👍🥃- their was an actress named Kimberly foster that use to be on Dallas , that's not u though is it ?
I looked her up and found her obituary. She looked like a kind and friendly person. You have fond memories of her and she lives on in your heart. Rest in peace, Sherry.
I wish you could have posted the link, I’d like to see it
Just google her name @@CocoaW555
Sorry for your loss. You seem to be a person full of compassion. We never get over a loss. We learn to live with what can’t change.
Sorry for your loss Lamont. I can tell it’s a different kind of story when it gets personal for you. Thanks for sharing your personal stories with us!
Lamont I'm so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful story. I can hear the utter heartbreak in your voice and it's so painful to hear your hurt. 😢❤❤❤❤❤❤ RIP SHERRY MITCHELL❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lamont you told this story so well. What an amazing friend she must have been. You brought her life alive in your video. Thank you for sharing Brother.
you speak of her in a way that makes me wish id have known her. so difficult to find good people ... there rare indeed.
That hummingbird showing up as you were talking about and to her could of been a sign from her 😊❤..RIP to your friend Sherry and her mom
So sorry for your loss. She sounded like she was a beautiful, caring person.
Sorry Lamont , I'm sure that was so hard for you to share this with us. Makes your heart even bigger buddy .
I am so sorry about your friend. I can tell you really cared about her. You have a big heart too Lamont. She knows you care❤
Sorry for your loss Lamont I am sure she is looking out for you in the heavens of earth. She is smiling and protecting you as we speak.
Heartbreaking. People like that don’t come around often just because thankful she was in your life for the time that she was Lamont ❤
This one hit deep,Lamont...thank u for sharing. 2000, 1,2,3 seems just like yesterday to me, and I was around 23 then. This woman was a beautiful soul, sorry for your loss...I 💔
I was only 9 years old!
My deepest sympathy of the death of your friend, Sherry Mitchell. It's good to know that she was able to help you at the time of your need. She sounds like she was a good friend. She was so young when she died. I had a friend that died at the same age of 36. I do sometimes feel guilty that she passed away and I'm still living. I know she is watching over you. RIP Sherry 🕊️
That was a hell of an episode in memoriam of yr friend - it was obviously tough to do & you did it with both style and compassion. She would be proud of you. Thank you for letting us in on this special part of yr life.
With love to an Angel.
Luv ya Lamont.
Thank you for sharing Lamont. You had a beautiful connection with Sherry. When you share that kind of connection please know that she is with you. You didn't get to travel together before ......but you are now.
So sorry for your loss, Lamont😢
You didn’t have to share such a personal time in your life, but it was so touching and it was part of what makes you who you are today. She was obviously a very compassionate person and you are too.
Blessings🙏🥰
I am so sorry for your loss Lamont. May she rest in peace. 🕊
This is heartbreaking. She knows you loved her for sure 🙏🌹❤️ you will see her again. God Bless you Lamont.
You are a great story teller Lamont. But sometimes they feel especially sad. I am so sorry you lost your close friend. She must have been a truly good soul! 😔 Stay safe!
