Cheryl and I were friends/family from the moment we met. I remember as a child the phrase “Never met a stranger”, but I never truly understood what that really meant until meeting Cheryl. Such a complementary soul! She always had positive things to say of everyone who was a part of her life. And her green thumb was definitely something to envy! We were all blessed to have known her.
Thank you, Cheryl. The memories of you are golden.
With Love, Kate
Cheryl will be missed and always loved. Her kindness to me the one time I spent about a week with her and my Uncle Richard when they traveled to New Orleans on the Harley was such a great visit that I will never forget. She took loving care of the last poinsettia plant my Grandmother had before her death for many years after and posted pictures each year for the family to see how much she treasured the love of her mother in law. I didn’t spend much time with her in the last 18 years because of the distance but she always made time to stay in touch with me over the years. She was a precious angel
We didn’t hangout a lot since I live in Louisiana, but when we were able to visit we always had a great time!! We had so much fun when she & Richard came to Louisiana on the Harley!! She will be sooo missed!! Love you Cheryl ????????❤️
Cheryl you were a true fighter of this horrible disease. I’m so glad to have known you through work. You no longer have to fight my dear friend.
