I am so sorry to hear the tragic news of your daughter Cherub's passing. I 'm glad I got to meet her at the pool last summer since I have heard you speak of her many times.

My heart goes out to you as I know how important your family has always been to you and how devoted you have been over the years to your kids and grandkids. May that love comfort you at this difficult time and may Cher rest in peace and watch over you all from heaven.

Dear Shawn, Sarah, and Grandma Hanley,
I was so saddened to hear of Cherub's passing. My heart goes out to you all at this time...
Shawn was one of my closest friends growing up so we were around each other quite a bit...I have so many great memories of Cher's warm spirit. She always had such a big heart.
Again, I am just so sorry for your loss and if there anything at all that I can do, please don't hesitate to call.
God Bless!

She was a wonderful, cheerful, playful, fun woman. Her daughter, Sarah, was one of my best friends all through high school at Sacred Heart, and I still consider her a very close friend. My heart is with Sarah, Shawn, her grandmother, aunts, uncles, Terri & Maura, and all the cousins during this time. I have spent many days, nights, and car rides with Sarah and her mom, and their bond was, and will continue to be one that is very strong and unique. They are friends as well as mother and daughter. She will be missed, and I'm sure can rest peacefully knowing that Sarah is surrounded by so many people who love her more than she can even realize.
