Sherry Zalayha Hoffman

Sherry and I were co workers at the thrift store in Whitby. There was always laughter and fun when Sherry was around. She made a dull day into a bright day most of the times. A very positive fun loving person, encouraging everyone she met there in the store. Will miss her laughter and smiles. Rest in God's peace dear Sherry.

Sherry was part of our "squad" at Penal Junior Secondary School and Point Fortin College during the years 1972-1977.


We recall the endless hours of fun and laughter that we shared together on the bus rides to Point Fortin. 

In the years that followed we kept in touch with love and good times, we stayed friends till the end.

We pray for courage and peace for her entire family at this very difficult time.


WendyAli: Grew up with Sherry from a tender age of 6 years to present. Attended the same schools.We lived next to each other and kept her friendship until her passing. Always at her house playing together. I had the pleasure of visiting her in Canada in 1984. She was my childhood friend forever. Will miss you and our conversations. We played Scabble countless times. Still have that little red note book you passed on to me that Radica gave you..❤️❤️❤️


May Sherry's memory continue to inspire and uplift us as we navigate a world without her in it. 

Together we honor her legacy and cherish all the moments we shared with her.


Sleep well dear friend, until we see each other again.

Our condolences to you all in the loss of your Mom. We will be praying for you all. Hugs

Aunty Sherry was a vibrant, loving soul whose presence lit up any room she entered. Her deep love for her family was undeniable, and no matter where she lived, she always made sure to be part of every gathering, celebration, and milestone. Even though she lived a bit outside of the downtown area, where most of her siblings were, she never missed an event. You could always count on her not only to show up but to bring thoughtful gifts that spoke to her generosity and care.

I have such fond memories of spending time with her as a little girl, baking together in her warm kitchen in Aurora. She was incredibly patient and kind, nurturing my love for baking with every recipe and every moment we shared. Her gingerbread was legendary—perfectly spiced, perfectly baked, and full of love.

Aunty Sherry had a special way of making everyone feel unique. She gave each of us a nickname—myself included—and I’ll always remember the sweet affection with which she called a few of us "Cookie." Her laughter was infectious, her smile radiant, and her love for her family, unshakeable.

You are deeply loved, Aunty Sherry, and your memory will live in my heart forever. I will miss you more than words can express, but I take comfort in knowing that you are now at peace, free from pain and sickness. Rest in peace, Aunty, with the love and joy you so freely gave to all of us.

Sherry was a very sweet person who always had a smile on her face. A beautiful person inside and out! Her kindness radiated to those around her!
She was my friend, co-workers and one of the best people I know!
You will be missed. That I’m sure
Until we meet again ….

Ecclesiastic 3:1
For everything there is a season,
A time for every activity under heaven.
Ecc 3:14
And I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God's purpose is that
People should fear him . What has happened now has happened before.
So many great memories...
What stuck out right now is all of us Huddled watching Waltz Disney every Sunday.
RIP Shery

My mom and Aunt Sherry were childhood friends and they maintained that friendship throughout their years. She always made things sound so cool. It was because of this that I was fascinated with snow and left my tropical home to experience it. I will always keep her close in my heart. I will remember her unique laugh and beautiful smile. We love you Aunty, until we meet again... To all those who loved her, please accept condolences from the Ragoo family of Trinidad and Tobago.

Aunty Sherry is my favorite aunt, gave the most loving hugs and had the grandest laugh. Making me more than happy to provide her with any comical relief. As a young child she taught me how to grow and pick cherry tomatoes and blueberries. She took the time and effort to teach me how to make banana pancakes with fresh blueberries from the family garden. It is because of her and uncle Barry's seeds they sprouted in my mind, heart and soul I grew a love to be green thumb. 🌱
