Sherman Dale Munds

Graveside services for Sherman Dale Munds, 89, will be held on Thursday, January 22, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. at Forest Park West Cemetery, 4000 Meriwether Road in Shreveport, Louisiana. 

Sherman was born November 16, 1936 in Blue Jacket, Oklahoma to Clarence and Louise Munds and passed away on Monday, January 19, 2026 at home in Shreveport.

Sherman is preceded in death by his parents; and the love of his life, his wife, Merlice Munds; son, Steven Munds; daughter, Cindy Rodgers; and sister, Karen Bonds. Left to cherish his memory are his sons, Mitchell Munds and Chris, Howard Aucoin and wife, Betty, Jeff Munds and wife, Sherrill; daughter, Sherry Ashby and husband, Johnny; and many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.

Sherman was retired from the trucking industry, having spent many years behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler. He and his beloved wife, Merlice, shared a deep love for traveling, camping, and fishing, but nothing brought him greater joy than time spent with his family—especially his grandchildren. Sherman will be remembered as a devoted son, a loving husband, a proud father, a cherished grandfather, and a loyal friend.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to hospice and the dedicated sitters who provided such exceptional care to Sherman during his time of need. Their compassion, kindness, and unwavering support meant more than words can express, and the family is deeply appreciative of the love shown to Sherman and to them.
