WINTERSVILLE Author, speaker and Aging Awesomely coach Sherrie Dunlevy was the guest presenter for the Wintersville Woman’s Club’s first gathering in months since COVID-19 concerns shut down the normal rhythm of groups meeting routinely.
And that seemed fitting, given the Wheeling woman’s program “Designing A Life You Love” was one she developed during the pandemic and had done virtually. For the club’s March meeting, however, it was her first time to deliver the message in person.
