(White) Leclerc, 69, of 20 Cedar Street, passed away Monday afternoon, January 21, 2013 at her home where she was under the loving care of her family and Hospice and Palliative Care of St. Lawrence Valley.

She began working there in 1986 with the previous owners, John and Kay Colish, before buying the business in 1990.

Sherry enjoyed crafting, painting, flower gardening, home decorating, and New Year’s Eve parties with her grandchildren.
