A woman who was struck by a vehicle and killed Thursday in a Decatur parking lot, in what police say was a deliberate act, is being remembered as “a caring and loving friend to all who knew her.”
A graveside service will take place Wednesday at 11 a.m. at Midway Memorial Gardens in Moulton for Sherry Smith Sain, 64, who died Thursday.
According to Decatur police, Sain was intentionally struck and killed in the parking lot of Walmart Neighborhood Market, 1203 6th Ave. S.E., at about 9 p.m. Thursday.
Sain was dead at the scene. The driver of the vehicle that struck Sain, Preston Lamar Nelson, 38, of Huntsville, attempted to flee the parking lot but a bystander stopped the vehicle, which then stalled.
According to her obituary, Sain was a long-time resident of Decatur and a resident of Huntsville for the past 15 years. Sain and her husband Johnny owned and operated North Alabama Mortuary Express.
A GoFundMe page, established for her funeral and family expenses, called her “a cherished member of our community and loved by so many.”
On social media, Sain’s daughter, Amber Rutherford, said, “She was so loved.”
According to investigators, Nelson pulled into the parking lot in his Mercury Grand Marquis and parked in a handicapped spot near the front.
Nelson sat in his vehicle until Sain walked directly behind the vehicle. Then he accelerated rapidly, striking her and another vehicle. According to court documents, Sain was pinned against the other car.
Police say there is no known connection between Nelson and Sain. Nelson has been charged with murder and is being held in the Morgan County Jail on $500,000 bond.
Personally I’d like to see him get the Vlad Teppich treatment - in public
We don’t have all the facts. The victim was an owner of a mortuary business. A lot of people in that kind of business dabble in the black arts, witchcraft, necromancy, etc. Or their employees do. We don’t know if the murderer knew her or not, if she had a coven, etc. Paganism is rampant in America these days.
We don’t know how he knew she would be where she was when she was. If it was premeditated. Yes it looks random from the outside. But, is he a disgruntled ex-employee? BF of an angry ex-employee? None of it would ever justify this horrific act. Still, things are not always what they seem.
This is war on many levels, not just the physical.
“...A lot of people in that kind of business dabble in the black arts, witchcraft, necromancy, etc...”
Is it proper to toss doubts and possibly Satanism on what appears to be completely innocent victim? Just because we are not sure she was a perfect member of the choir?

He will not go unpunished. I’m confident of that.
Obama’s race war continues.
What’s bigoted about it? It’s a word blacks use with each other all the time and this little bastard CHOOSE to kill a White woman, so who is the bigot here?
AMEN!
