Sherry was born June 3, 1948, in Albany, the daughter of Arnold and Shirley (Cohn) Levine. She loved to work with children, which she did as a Vista/AmeriCorps volunteer and previously as a teacher and tutor. Learning was very important to her and she enjoyed discussions on the politics of the day. More recently, she brought spirit and energy to her many “best friends” at Ohav Sholom in Albany, who cared so deeply for her.
She was preceded in death by her father, Arnold Levine.
Sherry is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Josh and Amy Krug, Las Vegas; daughter, Jessica Krug, Washington, D.C.; mother, Shirley Levine, Overland Park; brother and sister-in-law, Joel and Beverly Levine, Overland Park; sister and brother-in-law, Judy Levine-Holley and Steve Holley, San Antonio; step-grandson, Adam O’Reilly; and nieces and nephews.
