Cheryl was just the nicest kid in High School. A classmate - Bloom ‘71. Always a smile and a fun word. My deepest sympathies to the family, God Bless, and may she Rest In Peace.

Last time I saw Cheryl, she was a young girl and I was a slightly older playmate of her brothers. Our homes were back-to-back during a much simpler time. She is the image of her mother and, from what I read, was a sweet lady like her, too. My sincere condolences to the Karpas and Julian families.

I remember she was kind enough to invite me to one of Gina's birthday gathering. She was such a wonderful and kind person.

My brother and I were lifelong friends with the family. I loved Cheryl’s laugh and smile! I’m so very sorry she is not with us.
My prayers to her children, family and friends. Cheryl is an angel in heaven now. ❤
