Sherry Brusso, 54, died unexpectedly in her home on Sunday, January 17, 2021.
She was born in Beverly MA, moved to Salem MA as a child, and when she was nine years old, she moved to and attended Sanford schools. She graduated from Sanford High School in 1986.

She is also survived by her partner of 23 years, Joseph DelDuca. She was predeceased by her father, Bradford Brusso.
Sherry had an outgoing personality. She loved people and would often perform community service, such as volunteering for the Salvation Army. In her younger years, Sherry was an accomplished basketball player and played for many years, as well as being an Assistant Coach to a traveling team. She also loved sports, and rooted for all the New England teams. She was also an avid WWE fan.
Sherry also loved to cook and would often fantasize about competing in "Guy's Grocery Games." She was an animal lover, and she absolutely adored her cat, Lucky, that she adopted in 2012. Most of all, she loved being a grandmother to her grandchildren and was affectionately called "Small Nini" by her grandson.
Sherry made friends wherever she went; she had a light in her eyes and a warm smile that lit up a room. She will be missed by her family and friends.
Due to the pandemic, her Celebration of Life will be at a later date.

To say I’m devastated would be an understatement. We had a friendship only you and I could understand. It was so much more than that. Sisterhood. We’ve gone through so much together regardless of any strife or difficulties along the way. I hold an infinite treasure trove of memories that I will keep close to my heart that which no one can take from me. You were such an integral part of my life. It was very seldom we were ever not together My ying to your yang. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that you’re gone and never fathomed I’d be writing on a tribute wall saying goodbye We had plans to be the crazy old ladies causing hate and discontent because that’s what we did. Despite everything Sherry, I wouldn’t have traded it for anything. No regrets Just a lifetime of adventures. I love you Sherry and always will, until the day comes and we are together again, kicking back drinking a fifth of fire water and reminiscing about the good ‘ol days while laughing so hard we’re crying. Very few people knew you like I did I’ll be seeing you one sweet day
