Sherri Diane (Lee) Traw of Drasco, AR, died on Tuesday May 13, 2025, at the age of 67. Sherri was born on September 30, 1957, in Batesville, AR, to the late Arlis Lee Sr. and Carole June (Lewis) Lee. Sherri was of Christian faith and worship as a Seventh-day Adventist. Sherri was compassionate, caring, and very strong-willed. This served her well as she would spend over 20 years teaching preschoolers, and teaching preschool teachers. Sherri earned her bachelor's degree in education at Lyon College and went on to earn her master's degree in education at Torro University. Sherri had many hobbies and interests other than her passion to teach and be around children. Sherri also enjoyed animals, music, and genealogy, and she loved the lake. But out of all her passions and hobbies, nothing meant more to her than being a loving wife, mother and grandmother, sister, daughter, aunt, cousin, and friend. She will be dearly missed by everyone who was blessed to know her.
