Cheryl Gouveia Obituary

Visit the Nardolillo Funeral Home Inc. - Cranston website to view the full obituary.

62, of Cranston, passed away on Saturday, November 22, 2025. Born in Attleboro, MA, she was the daughter of the late Gary and Hazel (Skeese) Reardon.

Cheryl was a beloved figure in the lives of many, known for her unwavering dedication and compassion as a registered nurse. She devoted her entire career to Women and Infants Hospital, where she made a significant impact on countless lives before retiring.

Cheryl is survived by her loving daughters, Amanda Gouveia and Jessica Albarran and her husband Erik, her sister Lisa Hetland and her husband Arnie, her brother Michael Ann Reardon and his wife Wendy, and her former husband Carlos Gouveia, with whom she shared a strong bond.

Cheryl's passion extended beyond her profession; she cherished the time spent in the company of her loved ones. Her two daughters, Amanda Gouveia and Jessica Albarran, along with Jessica's husband Erik, were her pride and joy. Cheryl relished her “mommy and me days” with her daughters and her son in-law Erik, creating a bond filled with love and shared experiences. She embraced the holidays with enthusiasm, and enjoyed meaningful gatherings with friends, celebrating life’s moments with laughter and joy.

A woman of many interests, Cheryl had a love for shopping and international travel, which brought her great happiness and memories. She also delighted in day trips to her friends’ beach house, immersing herself in the beauty of nature and the ocean. Her gentle spirit was further reflected in her selfless nature; she always found time to help others in need, embodying the true essence of kindness.

Cheryl’s warmth extended not only to her family but also to her cherished friends, who will remember her for her boundless love and vivacious spirit. She took great joy in the simple pleasures of life, spending quality time with her grand puppies and her beloved cat, Lenny.

Visiting hours will be held on Wednesday, December 3rd, from 4:00-6:00 p.m., with a eulogy to be held at 5:00 p.m. by her devoted daughters in the NARDOLILLO FUNERAL HOME & Crematory, 1278 Park Avenue, Cranston.
