Sherria (Sheri) Tyler, age 75, was born on January 1, 1950, and following a two-year battle with pancreatic cancer, she passed away peacefully, in her home on November 29, 2025.

Sheri was an accomplished spinner, knitter and teacher. She taught spinning lessons to various groups in Humboldt County. Sheri raised, sheered, spun and knitted her animals’ fleece (alpacas, angora goats, llamas and sheep), and sold them at the Arcata Farmer’s Market for 23 years.

Sheri is survived by her husband, Steve Tyler of Arcata; two sons — Zack Tyler of Washington State and Josh Tyler of Vermont State; and three grandchildren.

The Tyler family would like to thank the staff of Hospice of Humboldt for the care, compassion, and comfort provided to Sheri during the last few weeks of her life. Memorial donations may be made directly to Hospice of Humboldt in Eureka.
