Millcreek • Late afternoon sunlight fell on the cemetery’s snowy quiet as family members gathered Saturday at Sherry Black’s gravesite to once again mark her unsolved murder.
It was the ninth anniversary of the day Black’s husband, Eric, found the 64-year-old South Salt Lake bookseller, beloved wife and mother severely beaten and stabbed to death at B&W Billiards & Books, the family’s home-based business at 3466 S. 700 East.
Two dozen or so family members and friends hugged, grieved and shared personal stories about Black Saturday afternoon in the candlelight memorial at Millcreek’s Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park, to honor her memory and to keep her homicide in the public eye in hopes of generating new clues.
