I am so saddened to hear of Cheryl’s passing. I had the pleasure of working with her for many years. She was a wonderful colleague and someone I could always count on for help. Cheryl was wise way beyond her years and was kind to everyone she met. My condolences to her family. She will be missed but she is undoubtedly with the angels in heaven.
I loved this lady so much we had some great times together.
My love and prayers to all of her family. She was a cousin but she seemed to be also a friend.
She will be missed so very much.
She was the most wonderful person you would ever meet. She love most everyone and would help anyone. She was my niece and friend. Love and miss you beautiful lady!!
