Sheri Elisabeth Murdoch

Sheri Elisabeth Murdoch, 54, passed away peacefully in Idaho Falls, September 23, 2026, where she was also born. Sheri grew up in Shelley where she graduated from High School and went on to be a natural Homemaker and loving mother to her 4 children.

She loved with her whole heart and everyone whom she loved knew it. There wasn't a call she made or a visit to be had where she wasn't offering to take care of something or someone. If her family needed her, she would drop everything to help.

Her family was her world and having them around her was where she thrived. Her hugs would touch your heart and her laugh could fill the room. She was gifted at helping everyone feel seen, heard, and valued.

She is preceded in death by her brother Troy Pettingill. Her legacy and love will be carried on by her parents; Shane and Louise Pettingill, her siblings, Toni Schroath, Michael Pettingill, and Steven Pettingill, her children, Amanda (Ryan) Sommer, Kateland (Blake) Adams, Shelby (Connor) Bateman, and Zachary (Madison) Murdoch, as well as her granddaughters, Kameryn Sommer, Mila Adams, Ivory Adams, and Elsie Adams.

Her ability to love will always be remembered and felt by all that were recipients of that love. She is and will be deeply missed.
