Sherry Gazda, 70, of Hartford, passed away on Friday, July 11, 2025, after a long illness. She attended Immaculate Conception School and Bulkeley High School in Hartford.
Sherry was predeceased by her father, Henry Gazda, Sr. and her brother, Joseph Gazda. She is survived by her loving mother, Dorothy Gazda, whom she called every day, and her brothers, Hank Gazda of East Windsor, CT, John Gazda of Naples, FL, and Ted Gazda of Willimantic, CT.
Sherry loved her cats, but not as much as her love for her Mom and her brothers. She was a loving, kind, daughter and sister, who will be missed.
A private family service will be held at a later date. Online condolences may be made at www.SheehanHilbornBreen.com To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Sherry, please visit our floral store.
