Miss you, Miss U. Tomorrow is your 1yr Anniversary of being in Heaven, it´s comforting to know you are in the best place, happy, healthy, & whole, in God´s presence. You´ll always be in my heart & soul. And like other songs say, "I got to be good" so "we´ll meet again" in "para-para-paradise."

Cheryl was the type of friend who would give you the shirt off her back and than gameplan with you on how to get a shirt in every color so you´re never shirtless again. Vibrant and full of love for life, the true definition of selflessness. Cheryl, having you in my life was a blessing. Thank you for the years of laughs, shoulders to cry on, and everything but the sink salads. I love you! Rest easy my amazing angel!

My deepest condolences on the loss of your sister. I´m so glad I had a chance to know Cheryl. She was a special person that brought love and joy to so many. My thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family.

Oh my sweet Cheryl. You were my second mom. My fierce protector. My person I could always turn to. I feel so terrible that I didn´t get to say goodbye. I love you forever and for always. There are no words for the gratitude for all you have done for me, your whole family accepted me as one of their own. While I´m forever grateful you´re no longer in pain, I´m selfishly wishing for one more hug, one more "It´ll be ok Sweetie"...

My heart is with all of you! I loved her so very much, and will forever cherish all the fun memories! She had a very big part in making me who I am! I can only imagine the parties she is having with Alice and Frank my Mom and grandparents right now. Im only sad because I'm selfish, I know I just gained one amazing angel to continue to watch over me as she always has! You are all in my prayers! Xoxoxo!

Cheryl is not a loss, because of what we've learned from her from her constant love and friendship she has given us all, we have gained memories, had fun with her, we were loved by her and all her kind words. The first time I was introduced to her she called me sweetie and gave me a hug and I was hooked on Cheryl from there on in. I will greatly miss her she was a classy, dignified, beautiful woman that held her head high no matter what she was going through and always gave everybody a shoulders cry on and never asked anything of any of us in return. Loving and caring Cheryl will be forever missed, but more importantly always remembered.

A fine and strong lady. Also, the only woman I ever knew that could put the fear of God into Greg. She will be sorely missed.
