Sheri (Sheri Edwards (America)) from Ocala, FL
Marine
and
Sheri hails from Ocala, Florida, and has resided in Brazil for the past 23 years as a
Baptist
Missionary. She and her husband (Mark) are the proud parents of four adult children
and
both of their sons are US Marines currently serving their country and loving their jobs
in
the Corps.
The years have found Sheri’s family in remote places of the Amazon Jungle as well
as
now in the mountains of Southern Brazil. She loves to travel and visit her Marines
as well
as her two daughters, but her favorite spot is sitting on her porch swing on her farm.
She
is often found there with her laptop as she answers questions and guides members
through Recruit Training. She is passionate about making the entire 13-week
journey an
enjoyable experience for the loved ones of Poolees and Recruits.
When Sheri’s oldest Marine left for Boot Camp she knew absolutely nothing about
what
to expect but soon found the Marine Parents Facebook Groups. The support she
found
there from the amazing Volunteers was so helpful that she decided to pay it forward
and
become a Volunteer as well. This was one of the best decisions she ever made.
Marine
Parents kept Sheri sane through Recruit Training and now has given her the
opportunity
to make many new friends and be an encouragement to other families going through
training as well. If you are thinking about becoming a Volunteer, she will be the first
to tell
you to just go ahead and sign up because you will not regret it!
