Sheryl Ann Lagge (Gage), as of October 7th, 2022,
went to be with God from her home at the age of 51.
She fought a long and courageous battle with
glioblastoma multiforme (brain cancer). She was
surrounded by loved ones who will remember her as
a caring wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend.
evenings with family, her two dogs (Loki and Malachi), and all her children’s friends
that frequented her home. Sheri loved the outdoors, hiking, and beautiful sunsets.
hollyhocks, peonies, roses, and marigolds. She was so sweet, and undoubtedly loves
Jesus Christ. No matter the circumstances, she always prayed with thanksgiving.
In her daily prayers, until her last days, she thanked God for her family, the birds,
and the trees (So cute!). Her personality was delightful, yet sassy, and magnetic
enough to draw in everyone she encountered. Her vivacious and giving spirit will be
missed by all who knew her.
Sheri lived to bring love and peace to everyone she met. She embodied 1 Corinthians
13:4-7 “Love is patient, love is kind….” To have known Sheri is to know true love.
Sheri was born in Indianapolis, Indiana to Michael Arthur Gage and Kathleen JoAnn
Daczewitz on February 19, 1971. She moved to South Dakota in her early teens and
attended Spearfish High School. She married the love of her life, Scott Lagge, on June
29, 1996 and eventually moved to Colorado. Sheri worked as a hair stylist for many
years, she then was a preschool teacher for some time after that. However, her
most important job was to be a stay at home mom. In more ways than can be
counted, she spread beauty and love to everyone she touched.
Sheri’s biggest priority and success in life was raising her three children; Brandon
Gage, Jessica Lagge, and Carter Lagge. They were blessed to have the most tender,
generous, loving, protective, supportive, encouraging, kind, and graceful mother
imaginable. Through her, they have grown to be reflections of her light to carry on in
this world.
Sheri was a warrior in her fight against Glioblastoma Multiforme; furthermore
proving her tenacious spirit. She was an anomaly in her existence of how long she
survived. To all who had the gift of more time with this angel on earth, shall we be
eternally grateful.
“Sheri, we know that we cannot have you here but we’re happy knowing that the
angels have finally got you back.
