Obituary

Barry H. Sherman age 74 currently living in Naples, Florida and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin passed away November 30th after a brief but courageous fight with cancer. He and his wife of 37 years, Toni Falato Sherman were anxious to get back to their “slice of paradise." Barry enjoyed a 40 year career as an attorney practicing in Oak Brook, IL after graduating from Columbia Law School. Barry enjoyed his time living in NYC and he and Toni visited there often attending plays and museums. Barry was curious, adventurous and a voracious reader. He loved sharing Lake Geneva and Naples with visiting friends by giving them tours by boat or car. He enjoyed leading walks on the shore path in Lake Geneva. Barry was also a talented photographer. He found great joy in taking Sophia and Griffen on “midnight” golf cart rides at the lake which they loved. In addition to his wife Toni, he is survived by three daughters Heather Sherman, Christina (Tate) Skoumal, and Pamela (Moshe) Friedman and 5 adoring grandchildren Sophia Skoumal, Griffen Skoumal and Yaakov, Binyamin and Mattisyahu Friedman, a sister Phyllis Lesser, nephew Rick Lesser of Naples. Barry appreciated the outpouring of love so many friends and relatives expressed over the past months. Everyone who met him said he was wicked smart, knowledgeable, kind, caring and had an amazing wit. Graveside service Tuesday 11AM at Chapel Hill Gardens West Cemetery, 17W201 E. Roosevelt Rd., Oak Brook Terrace, IL. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to www.impeachdonaldtrumpnow.org or a charity of your choosing. What Barry would really want is for you to go to a play or a nice dinner and think of him. Arrangements by Chicago Jewish Funerals - Skokie Chapel, 847.229.8822, www.cjfinfo.com
