I lived on Wren Walk in Park Lane Manor directly across from your family. I loved your parents and both of you girls when you were born. Dottie watched over my kids (Jeff & Doug) and I watched over Cheryl and Sally. We lost touch with each other when both of us moved. So sorry Cheryl died so earlier in life. My thoughts and prayers are with her and the rest of the family!

I remember Cheryle from Ellet High School and what a kind person she was. It doesn't surprise me that she continued to help people and animals as well in her journey through the rest of her like. My condolences to her family.

Cheryle was always so kind in school so it doesn't surprise me to see that as an adult she not only cared for others, but rescued animals as well. Rest In Peace Cheryl and deepest condolences to her family.
