Cherie Marie Piccolo, 73, of Reading, passed away on November 17, 2025. Born in Kingston, Luzerne County, she was the daughter of Robert and June (Price) Bellis.
Cherie was a 1969 graduate of Central Catholic High School. Following graduation, she attended technical school and spent her working career as a computer programmer.
Cherie was a generous, helpful, and deeply caring person. She was silly in the best of ways, always bringing laughter to those around her. Reliable and determined, she approached life with a strong work ethic and an even stronger heart. She had a love that knew no bounds, and nothing brought her more joy than spending time with her children and grandchildren, whom she adored beyond measure.
She is survived by her daughter, Kelly M. Evans (Donald), of Bel Air, MD, and her son, Cory Harrison, of Broomfield, CO. Also surviving are her grandchildren, Connor Brian Evans and Abigail Marie Evans, as well as her siblings, Helene Newcomb (Joe), of Pittman, NJ, and Bobbie Westrich, of McKinney, TX.
Cherie was predeceased by her parents and her dear fiance, Fred Cook.
