Kathleen Poore ObituaryVisit the Conner-Westbury Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.Mrs. Kathleen "Sherry" Poore, age 86 of Jonesboro, Georgia passed away on Friday, March 13, 2026, at her residence surrounded by her loving family.Sherry, better known as Granny, was born in Camden, New Jersey on April 5, 1939. She was preceded in death by her parents, John and Catherine Sheridan; husband, Earl L. Poore; and sister, Maureen Procopio.She is survived by her children, John Deconna, Debbie Charlesworth, Diane (Brad) Manning, Rick (Shelly) Poore, Roger (Linda) Poore; grandchildren, Jennifer, Ryan, Cortney, Stacia, Bradley Jr., Kaitlyn, Bridgette, Brandi, Casey, Lee Jay, Gavin; several great grandchildren; siblings, John (Kathy) Sheridan, Joe Sheridan, Karen (Paul) Micarelli, Lynn (Jim) Richmann, Dennis (Donna) Sheridan; and best friend, Mary Fee."And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." – Philippians 4:7With heavy hearts, we remember a life filled with love, quiet strength, and devotion to family.Granny had a way of making people feel loved, welcomed, and at home, and her presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her. She loved dancing, Elvis, animals, and was known for her contagious laugh - the kind that started in her belly, and spread to everyone else in the room. Granny had a talent for turning ordinary moments into memorable ones, often by saying exactly what everyone else was thinking but didn't have the nerve to say out loud. Dancing around, laughing until tears came, and loving her family fiercely were just a few of her specialties.She will be missed dearly. And though our hearts are heavy, we know she would not want us to sit around crying too long so instead we celebrate her life. A life that brought warmth, kindness, and unwavering love to those around her. Her legacy lives on through the family she cherished and the countless memories that will continue to bring comfort and smiles for years to come.If there's music playing and someone suddenly feels the urge to dance, we'll know Granny is still around, making sure the good times keep rolling.Read The Full Obituary
