Cheryl Skidmore
March 1, 1951-June 4, 2024
Cheryl Skidmore, 73, of Rolling Prairie, Indiana, passed away Tuesday June 4, 2024 at Memorial Hospital in South Bend, IN.
In loving memory of Cheryl Skidmore (Borman), a remarkable woman cherished by many, who was tragically taken from us too soon. Was born on March 1, 1951, in Milwaukee, WI, a city that would forever hold a piece of her heart. She departed from this world on June 4, 2024, at Memorial Hospital South Bend, IN, a heartbreaking Motorcycle Accident (through no fault of her own).
Cheryl's life was a tapestry woven with love and adventure. She was known for her vibrant personality; a who radiated warmth and never hesitated to befriend strangers. Her family held a special place in her heart, and she showered them with unwavering affection.
Throughout her life's journey, Cheryl made countless memories and touched the lives of many. In her retirement years, she found solace in Fort Myers, FL - a winter haven that brought her joy and peace. She had a passion for riding motorcycles, embracing the thrill of the open road. Cheryl embraced life wholeheartedly and found immense joy in simple pleasures.
Among those who preceded Cheryl in death are her beloved parents, Ken and Virginia Borman. While we mourn her loss deeply, we find comfort in knowing that Cheryl has left behind a legacy of love that will endure through the ages.
Cherishing her memory are her surviving family and friends: Tony (Renee) Bleskan (son), Erick Bleskan (son), Jeremiah (Lisa) Bleskan (son), Adam (Jessica) Bleskan (son), Shane Bleskan (grandson), Jason Bleskan (grandson), Morgan Bleskan (grandson), Cody Bleskan (grandson), Madison Hartmann (granddaughter), Hailey Bleskan (granddaughter), Ron (Mary) Borman (brother), and many more relatives and friends who were touched by her kindness.
To honor Cheryl Skidmore's life and legacy, a Memorial Gathering and Celebration of Life will take place on June 15th, 2024, at the Haverstock Funeral Home Inc in La Porte, IN. The Memorial Gathering will begin at 10:00 AM while the Celebration of Life ceremony will commence at 2:00 PM in conjunction with Larry Cummings to commemorate the beautiful soul that graced our lives.
As we bid farewell to Cheryl in this world, may we carry forward the light she shared with us so generously. Rest in peace amidst the angels now, dear Cheryl Skidmore - your spirit will forever live on in our hearts.
