Thinking of everyone-you are all in my thoughts and
prayers. Cheryse always had us

My deepest sympathy to Cheryse's family. She will be sorely missed by those who knew her gentle and caring spirit. Psalm 27:13-14, "I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait , I say, on the Lord."

It has been a pleasure to work with Cheryse at The Friendly Home. She had a heart of compassion for the members as well as the staff she worked with. Her sense of humor was contagious. Her strength was amazing! Cheryse will truly be missed.

I enjoyed both working with Cheryse as a staff nurse and then helping her in her struggles with her health over the past years as her Employee health nurse.Cheryse took her role as a health provider serious but I enjoyed the glimpses of her sense of humor I saw in our many conversations during her illnesses and broken bones.Cheryse was "small"in her physical appearance but she will leave a large void here @ the Friendly Home. I will miss her greatly.
