Cheryl, I had the need to speak to you today. I know that you are in Heaven. I remember telling you that I had lost my Brother John. That's when you really opened up to me. You were just a unique lady. But, an honorable lady. Louis and I ( Trish) were thinking about you. I know you are at peace. Bless you lady. Your Friends, Trish and Louis D'anna

We were shocked to hear of Cheryl's passing. I asked if anyone had seen her lately. When I was told, both Louis and I felt a gut punch. Cheryl was misunderstood. She was extremely intelligent and we had long conversations. When we saw her , we would ask" Cheryl, how are you?". She didn't complain or gossip. It was a joy to hear and see her laugh! Please except our condolences. We will really miss her. I am picturing her with her brother Dave catching up. We love you Cheryl, please rest in peace.

Cheryl would call me pretty much every day at work and most days multiple times about various issues she was dealing with.
The best conversations would be when she and I would laugh about something. I'll miss that. I felt better knowing I got her to laugh. Maybe it could help her.
I hope she has found the peace she so looked for when she was here.
Rest in peace Cheryl.
Deepest sympathy to her family.

I rember working with Cheryl at the Catch 169 back in 1981. Cheryl and I would go out dancing on weekends. She was the barmaid in many place in Bayonne which aren't here any longer. I lost contact with her over the years. I remember her family lived on Andrew ST.. She was close to her brothers and younger sister. I saw Cheryl recently and she wasn't well. I will hold the memories of her in my heart. REST IN PEACE No more pain

Deepest condolences my Dear friend of 8 years. I met Cheryl at the hospital where we shared a lot of good memories. We spent a lot of holidays together here. Her favorite was when we had a bbq on the 4 of July and she was able to eat her favorite grilled hot dog. Gone too soon Cheryl I miss you every day

Dear Ronald, Tommy, Allyson and Danielle,

Please accept our most sincere condolences for the loss of your sister/ mother. We've had the pleasure of being friends with Cheryl for many, many years and were so very glad to always see her at her beloved Grace Bible Fellowship Church. She would always genuinely offer her help in any way she could to whoever she saw needed it. If she was ever upset about anything, just one mention of her much adored granddaughter Alicia Rose would put a huge smile on her face. We look forward to seeing that smile again in Paradise one day. Until then, Cheryl will be greatly missed.

With sincere sympathy, Tony and Helen Palmiero

Cheryl, you were always so kind to me growing up. You always made me laugh and always said such kind things to me. I know things got a little hard for you but you were so incredibly strong through it all. I know you´re rejoicing with our Heavenly Father. One thing for sure is you loved God so much even through all your struggles. I know how much your daughter and granddaughter meant to you and how proudly you showed off their photos. I know you missed your siblings too. Until we see each other again in eternity, love you friend. Anna
