WEST VIRGINIA - Linda Sherrard, formerly of Canfield, a devoted soul who dedicated 30 years of her life to the Rescue Mission Mahoning Valley as an Assistant to the Executive Director, breathed her last on July 8, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of compassion and service.
Born in Detroit, Michigan on June 4, 1949, Linda's early years laid the foundation for a life filled with selflessness and love for her family. Graduating from Western High School in Detroit in 1967, she embarked on a journey of helping others that would define her existence.
Linda's career at the Rescue Mission was not merely a job but a calling. Her commitment to aiding those in need resonated deeply with her values, making a profound impact on countless lives over three decades. Her proudest accomplishments included being a member of the Old North Church, the New Life Maternity Home, and the Trumbull County Business Women's organization.
Family was at the core of Linda's being, she cherished her loved ones above all else. She is survived by her daughters Kristina (John) Ervin, Jennifer (Bruce) Senn, Kathleen Sherrard, and son David Sherrard Jr. Her grandchildren Maria Ervin, Lillian (Charles) Morrow, John Ervin III, Abbigail, Isabella Senn, her sister Debra Sweet, her brothers Rudolph (Betty) Salazar and Rick (Veronica) Salazar will forever carry her memory in their hearts.
In the loving embrace of her family members waiting beyond this life are her husband David L. Sherrard whom she married 12-19-1970 and he died 12-30-2014 and her parents Rudolph and Lillian Salazar. Linda's passing leaves a void in their lives but also gratitude for having shared their journeys with such an extraordinary individual.
Outside of work and family life, Linda found joy in planning events and creating special moments for those around her. Her dedication to bringing people together was a testament to her generous spirit and genuine kindness.
