Thomas Lee Sherlin

September 19, 1955 — February 11, 2020

Thomas Lee Sherlin, 64, of Gretna, Louisiana passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on February 11, 2020.
Tom was a veteran and purple heart recipient of the USMC.
Tom was raised by 2 sisters, Bertha Hyatt and Josephine Hatch in Asheville, North Carolina. He was the father of one daughter, Michelle Sherlin Lankford (Todd) and “Grampers” to Alexa and Lily. He was preceded in death by his wife Mary Haas Sherlin, where he helped raise Corey Boudreaux (Melissa) as his own son. He was known lovingly as “Paw Paw” to Avery Boudreaux. Brother to James Sherlin (Ruth) and uncle to Jaime and brother to Brenda Sherlin Kuhn of Ohio. He was also loved by many cousins throughout North Carolina and Georgia.
Tom was a talented engineer who never missed a chance to make a new friend through his inquisitive mind and contagious laugh. He also loved spending time on his personal retreat in Carriere, Mississippi where he always had something to tinker with.
We will all miss the stories and the company of our father, grandfather, brother, uncle, cousin and friend.
A celebration of life will occur at a later date.
