Sherman Linwood Drost
June 2nd, 2013
September 12, 1946 to June 2, 2013
We are saddened to announce the passing of Sherman who passed away peacefully with his loving wife, Wilda and family by his side at the Tom Baker Cancer Centre. Sherman was a warm, kind and loving person who had a knack of entertaining everyone and was always surrounded by laughter. He was well liked by all, which was obvious by the number of friends who visited him while in hospital. Sherman is survived by his wife, Wilda; stepchildren, Wayne (Jamie), Kevin (Karen), Kelly (Ruth) and Darlene (Pete) and nine grandchildren. He is also survived by one brother and two sisters, along with several nieces and nephews, all in New Brunswick. A Memorial Service will be held at Bethany Church in Dickson, AB on Sunday, June 9, 2013 at 3:00 pm. Lunch and JAM session will follow at Spruce View Hall. Please bring your musical instruments. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to S.T.A.R.S., Box 570, 1441 Aviation Park NE, Calgary, AB, T2E 8M7.

Dear Wilda and family it was with great sadness that we learned of Sherman's passing. He was a kind and loving man who easily touched the hearts of all who knew him. Gary was just saying that Sherman was his last connection out here to his grandparents home on Coles Island, NB. Sometimes it truly is a small world. We are sorry that we will not be in town to attend the memorial service tomorrow. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Wilda...I was so sorry to hear of Sherman's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Paddy Birkeland and Family
