Funeral services will be conducted at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Raymond Funeral Home with his son, the Rev. Harold Sherman, Early, officiating. Burial will be in Evergreen Cemetery. In more recent years, following his retirement, Sherman has been known in the community for the fine apples he raised at his orchard located 5 1/2 miles southwest of Fairfield. Starting the orchard as a hobby in 1951, he transformed a seven-acre patch of thicket into a beautiful young orchard and recreation area. The trees were planted on terraces surrounding a farm pond which was constructed just before he launched his orchard project. Homer L. Sherman was born Sept. 10, 1896, in Wapello County, the son of Lorenzo and Emma Smith Sherman. He was reared and educated in the Fairfield Community. His marriage to Ethel Davis took place in 1915. He was later married to Ethel Cromwell Dec. 26, 1943, at Princeton, Ill. He was a member of the Eagles Lodge in Ottumwa, and the Moose Lodge in Keokuk. Sherman was a plumber by trade specializing in steamfitting. Survivors include his widow and two sons, Homer M. Sherman, Memphis, Tenn.; and the Rev. Harold Sherman, Early; five granddaughters and one great granddaughter. He was preceded in death by one brother, one sister, and one half-sister.
