Sherry Ann Bordeaux: Good Cook and
Loyal Friend
There
was a certain stability to Sherry Ann Bordeaux: she
joined Fiduciary Trust after college and stayed there for
15 years. She got to be best friends with Nicole Lynch
way back in junior high school, and stayed best friends
ever since.
And she loved her cozy living arrangement in a
three-family home in New Jersey, where Ms. Bordeaux, 38,
lived upstairs, her mother and brother lived downstairs
and her sister's family lived in the basement. "She was
close with my kids," said Ms. Bordeaux's sister, Cynthia.
"She'd take them out to eat. They'd listen to music
together, mostly R & B, and they danced a lot."
At Thanksgiving, while Ms. Bordeaux's mother would
serve the meal, Ms. Bordeaux, an aspiring cook, would
have the family &emdash; which often included Ms. Lynch
&emdash; up for appetizers or dessert.
"She loved cooking and she liked to think she was the
female Emeril," Ms. Lynch said. "Whenever we would travel
together, she would find the good restaurants. Her wine
was always merlot. She was a typical Virgo, very straight
and clear and a little rigid. She always knew what she
liked."
