I am sorry for your loss. May Cheryl Ann Hernandez, affectionately known as Sherry, be remembered fondly for the life she lived and the love she shared.
Cheryl was born on December 29, 1956, in Vancouver, Canada, to her loving parents Ann Desabrais Chorheg and Herbert Desabrais. She peacefully passed away on April 17, 2024 in Loma Linda, California, surrounded by her family.
Cheryl led a life filled with simple joys and cherished moments. She graduated with a high school diploma and went on create a warm and loving home for her family. Cheryl's hobbies included her love for cats, enjoying a good murder mystery, and most of all, spending quality time with her loved ones. Christmas held a special place in her heart as it brought everyone together in laughter and joy.
In Cheryl's journey of life, she leaves behind a legacy of love and memories that will forever be treasured by her surviving family: Sylvia Montenegro (daughter), Andrew Hernandez (son), Ariel Hernandez (daughter), Ariana Barajas (daughter), Darlene Desabrais (sister), Lawrence Desabrais (brother), 9 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren.
Her memory will be eternally cherished by all those who had the privilege of knowing her. Cheryl's caring nature and warm presence will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
May she rest in peace knowing that she was loved beyond measure and that her spirit will live on through the lives she touched. Our thoughts are with her family and friends during this difficult time of loss. To plant a beautiful memorial tree in memory of Cheryl, please visit our Tree Store.
