Right: Rory Feek and his daughter, Indiana, sign books for some young readers. Feek was one of several authors who attended
the two-day Laura Ingalls Wilder Children’s Literature Festival Nov. 3-4. Left: Rory Feek plays one of two songs during the Laura
Ingalls Wilder Children’s Literature Awards Ceremony at the museum on Nov. 3. He sang “That’s Important to Me” and “A Little
More Country Than That.” Feek said after playing in Branson in 2021, he noticed on the map that he and his daughter, Indiana,
who is a big Laura Ingalls Wilder fan, were very close to Mansfield. They stopped in to visit. That visit led to him being invited to
participate in the Children’s Literature Festival in 2022. He became famous as a singer with his late wife, Joey, in the group, Joey
+ Rory. His wife passed after a public battle with cervical cancer in 2016.

On Saturday, Oct. 29, 2022, Sherrie Lynn Hancock
(Spencer) died following a brief and unexpected
stay at the Mercy Hospital in Springfield, just a
few days after her 63rd birthday. Sherrie was born
to Norbert and Shirley Spencer in Columbus,
Ohio on Oct. 24, 1959. It was here that she met
her lifelong love and husband, Timothy Coleman
Hancock, when they were both in the fourth grade.
Tim and Sherrie were married on July 21, 1979, in
Commercial Point, Ohio, and four children were
born to this union: Timothy Daniel, Aaron Leland,
Lynn Marie and David Kyle. When the children
were quite young, the family relocated to Mountain
Grove. Both Tim and Sherrie were raised in families
where a great love of music was cultivated, and
they established the same in their home from the
SHERRIE LYNN
beginning, with Sherrie teaching the four children
HANCOCK
to sing and perform together for church and family
functions. Sherrie was an accomplished pianist and had a clear soprano solo
voice; she took special delight in playing the piano for church services, singing
in the choir, and performing as a soloist. Her love of music reached beyond
her family into the Mountain Grove community, where for several decades she
taught piano privately, and accompanied vocal and instrumental soloists and
ensembles in the school band and choral programs. When her four children were
school-age, Sherrie completed a Bachelor of Education in Library Science, while
simultaneously working one or two part-time jobs, and nurturing her family. She
subsequently took great pride in her role as Librarian of the Mountain Grove
Elementary School from 1996 until her retirement in 2017, instilling her great
love for books and reading in many young minds. A diagnosis of cancer at age
48 was met by an outpouring of love, prayer and support from her family and
community. In the 15 years following her treatment and recovery she took great
delight in her family and especially her grandchildren, all of whom were born
during this time: Aria Jo, Cres Dale, Rosalin Rashell, Isabella Marie, Henley Rose,
John Greenleaf and Coleman Kyle. During these years, she and Tim moved from
their home in Mountain Grove to a beautiful rural setting near Vanzant, where
they designed and built a home from which they enjoyed the splendor of the
surrounding Ozarks landscape—especially, the sunsets. Sherrie was skilled in
the art of crochet, and her love for this craft resulted in a creative and prolific
legacy of treasured handiwork generously gifted to family and friends, and
particularly, for her grandchildren. A far greater legacy is left in the strong and
constant witness of her deep and abiding faith in God—the foundations of which
had been well laid by her parents and grandparents—and which grew deeper
and more evident with each passing year. From this reserve she shared freely
for the encouragement and edification of her family, friends and those who were
in need. Sherrie could be characterized as quiet, gracious, and perhaps even
unassuming. However, these were matched by an underlying strength, inde-
pendence, skill, and determination which she consistently channeled into acts
of kindness, devotion, and service to her God, her family, and her community.
Sherrie was preceded in death by her father, Norbert (January 2022), and is
survived by her mother, Shirley; loving husband, Tim; siblings, Pamela Ed-
wards (Scott), Julianne Cymbalak (Mark) and Michael Spencer (Julie); her four
children and their spouses, Daniel and Samantha Koch Hancock, Aaron and
Kayla Hancock, Stephen and Lynn Mathews and David and Nicole Hancock;
seven grandchildren; and a whole host of family and kindred friends who loved
her well. Although her death was sudden and unexpected, Sherrie left behind
signposts as to her readiness to meet her Maker, including this which was in-
scribed in the front of her Bible, “When I die, do not play Taps over my grave;
instead, play Reveille, the morning call, the summons to arise.” “Her children
rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.” “A woman
who honors the Lord is greatly to be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.”

Restore Visitation for Sherrie Hancock was held Thursday, Nov. 3, 2022, from 6-8 p.m.
at First Baptist Church, Mountain Grove. Funeral services were held Friday,
Nov. 4, 2022, at 10 a.m., also at the church, with Pastor Dustin Byrd and Brother

Your Gene Edwards officiating.

Prelude was “Going Home” by Nancy Doty and Jean Ann Reed. Special song
selection was “Rejoice In The Lord” with Nancy Doty as vocalist and Jean Ann

Panthers overcome windy conditions to beat Tigers
Mountain Grove goes to Liberty for district finals match-up on Nov. 11
BY THE WCJ STAFF
EDITOR@WRIGHTCOUNTYJOURNAL.COM
With the starting time
moved up two hours due
to incoming bad weather,
windy conditions settled
in early at 5 p.m. when
the Mountain Grove Pan-
thers’ football team took
on Houston last Friday
in the Class 2, District 3
semifinals.
The high winds affected
the passing and kicking
games of both teams.
Fortunately for Moun-
tain Grove, the Panthers’
defense completely
locked down Houston’s
offense by holding them
to just 75 total yards of
offense in the game.
This resulted in Moun-
tain Grove defeating the
Tigers, 28-6.
With Liberty (Mountain
View) crushing Strafford,
47-6, the Panthers will
go on the road to take on
the Eagles in the district
championship game on
Friday, Nov. 11 at 7 p.m.
The Panthers appeared
ready to cruise to an easy
victory after they took
just five plays to march 58
yards against the Tigers.
Hollen Glenn had a big
23-yard run during the
drive before Daiton Hook
scored on a two-yard
plunge just 2:07 into the
contest.
Ty Gardner’s extra-point
kick gave Mountain
Grove an early 7-0 edge.
Mountain Grove’s de-
fense held Houston to
minus one yard of offense
on the Tigers’ first drive.
Getting the ball back,
Mountain Grove’s offense
struggled throwing the
ball into the wind and
ended up turning the
ball over on downs near
midfield.
Before the end of the first
quarter, a bad snap on a
punt attempt led quarter-
back/punter Tyson Elliott
to cover up the ball for
an 18-yard loss deep into
Panthers’ territory.

Panthers’ 15 and scored
four plays later with a
two-yard touchdown run
of their own. A two-point
run failed keeping Moun-
tain Grove in front, 7-6.
Mountain Grove’s of-
fense put a nice drive
together in the second
quarter as they took more
than seven minutes off
the clock.
Elliott completed a pair
of 17-yard passes to De-
veyn Martin and Aden
Estep.
With a first down on
the eight yard line, the
Panthers’ had three failed
runs and one batted
down pass as Houston’s
defense stalled Mountain
Grove on the Tigers’ two.
The Panthers’ defense
responded three plays lat-
er when Estep intercept-
ed a pass and returned it
11 yards for a touchdown.
Gardner’s kick gave the
Panthers a 14-6 edge.
Houston nearly had a
chance to score before
halftime when a second
down pass with 29 sec-
onds left on the clock
was ruled a catch by of-
ficials after it was clear-
ly dropped by a Tigers’
receiver.
Fortunately, the Tigers’
pass into the end zone as
time expired was ruled
incomplete, though
Houston’s coaching staff
challenged the call as
their receiver was lying in
the end zone on his back
with the ball on his chest.
In the first half, Moun-
tain Grove had 85 yards
passing and 37 on the
ground for 122 yards of
offense. Houston had just
five passing yards and 31
on the ground for 36 total

The most important person in the world

“I hate this, I don’t want
to have to go thru this!”
Don’t blame you for feel-
ing that. But sometimes,
maybe you need ‘this’.
Maybe, it’s going to pre-
pare you for something
that is coming your way,
years from now. Or just
maybe, it is to shape you
into becoming a better
person. Truth is, your
Creator knows you, and
knows exactly what’s
needed in your life.
But let’s face it, most of
us human race members
are self-oriented and re-
ally despise hurting. We

detest not having things
go exactly the way we
want them to go. Totally
dislike when certain peo-
ple don’t act and react
the way we want them
to. Somehow, we seem
to feel that we should be
treated special, and all
bad stuff should stay the
heck away from us. And
we are extremely glad to
voice our opinion of how
unfair it is when some-
thing bad does happen
to us. But when hurtful
things happen to some-
one else, somehow that
doesn’t cause us near as
much heartburn. When a
barely tolerated co-work-
er suffers unfairly, some
will react with, “That’s
okay with me. After all,
they deserve it, the way
they always act around
here.” And if a neighbor
suffers thru a horrible
event, “Well yeah, that is
a tough one. But, ya know,
what goes around comes
around. They probably
needed to come down a
peg or two, always be-
having like they own the
world. Guess they’re gon-
na see life from us regular
people’s level now.”
And yes, if a beloved
friend has a tragedy hap-
pen in their life, then
friends and neighbors will
rally around them to help
and console…for a little
while. “But, after all, life
must go on, and everyone
has to get back to normal
sooner or later.”
Want an example that
people are naturally
self-oriented? Easy. Just
watch and listen to a baby.
Concern for his exhaust-
ed Mom is not anywhere
on the radar of that infant.
He just insists on being
fed when he feels that first
pang of hunger. And if he
wants a clean diaper, that
baby will let whoever is in
earshot know it – loudly.
If he is lonely, or sleepy,
or angry, then he will de-
mand that someone in his
universe fix it.
We humans are proba-
bly the most automatical-
ly self-centered creatures
