Not sure what to say?

A wonderful woman that I was fortunate to meet and work with at the town hall.

Mike, I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you and your family.

I am deeply saddened to read of Cheryl´s passing. Cheryl and I went all through school together from Tatham School to graduation from West Side High School, Class of 62. That´s a lot of memories, sharing school time and many fun days after school at my house. In later years, Cheryl and I always bumped into each other "shopping" and at our children´s sports games. Cheryl was a very kind and thoughtful person, always willing to give. Soar with the angels my friend. R.I.P.

Heaven has gained another Angel for sure.

It is sad to see you go Cheryl, you were a bright star in our class and Club 62. I will always remember we had the same dress for graduation in 1962. Fly high my friend. Love Carol

She provided such a relief to my mind knowing Charlie could hang at Mimi’s house with Jessie & Abby when school got out early or 1/2 days when needed. She made him feel like he was...

Our sincere condolences. She soars with the angels. Dan and Sherry McCarthy

We are so sorry for your family’s loss Our hearts and prayers are with all of you. Cheryl was wonderful. She never went by our house without stopping and offering a smile and a story. She treated her neighbors like her extended family. Cheryl was kind and generous. She always had a little chocolate or gift for the kids. If it wasn’t for Cheryl we wouldn’t have family Halloween pictures bec after offering a treat she would take a picture of the kids before they left her door.She will be...
