Bishop Sherman Foster Standridge, 54, beloved husband of Kimberly Richardson Standridge and beloved father to Carter-Ann Owens and Olivia Standridge, entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, December 26, 2018 at his home.
Born on June 8, 1964, in Gainesville, GA, Bishop Standridge was raised on a farm in Commerce, GA by his parents, Joyce Elizabeth Tolbert Standridge and the late J.B. Standridge.

Bishop Standridge’s love for ministry continued as he traveled around singing gospel music, most recently with The Cribbs. He was a member of Outland Church of God.
Bishop Standridge enjoyed ice cream and the smell of a diesel engine, was a jack of all trades, a singer and musician. He was a loving husband, father, son, brother, brother-in-law, pastor, friend and, above all else, a follower of Jesus of Christ who led many people to the Lord.
