My best friend Cheree Nichole Fahringer is know with her mother where she can be free with her mother and they can run up them water slides. She was the best friend that anybody could ever ask for. She had the smile that brightened up the whole room. She was friend's with everybody and anybody though she's gone she's still in our hearts and our memories. Cheree and I had a lot of fun together we'd walk around talking to complete strangers, attempt to laugh for no reason at all, at like were in the MTV movies, and walk around doing weird stuff.

But that's what was so special between us. She spent her last weekend with me, she went with me to my uncle's house with me went swimming, and to the stores with my sister Brittany who she loved to see, and be with. Cheree and I had a special bound together we'd call each other 24/7 talking even if i was grounded at the end of our conversation we'd say lylas. Jeovanny was one of her good friends too. They've known each other for awhile too. They had good moments together too. Quaadir was one of her close friends too he misses seeing her beautiful face and her smile. Skittles was also one of her good friends too they use to watch movies over at her house and was the scary ones and skittles would always scare her and Jess. Brandon was her boyfriend he's so funny she use to love it when he'd do berries and cream for her. Cheree and I were going to go to the footballs games together with her dad to watch her brother play. We had lots of plans to graduate and then to go to collage together and get an apartment together. Her dad was like a second dad to me who always could make me laugh and we'd pick on each other. Cheree's favorite song was coffee shop. We'd listen to it together a lot. She always love coming over to my house. Next year she wanted me to go on vaction with her. We'd write notes to eachother everyday. And when I was a car rider i'd always wait for her. I'll miss Cheree Nichole Fahringer but now she can run free with her mom and look over all of us, awhile we watch over her. She'll always be my number one bestfriend we'll always be NOBFFLNMW(number one best friends for life now matter what). I'll always remember you and all the good times we had together. R.I.P.

I wish the best for your family and I hope you know that your lovely daughter/sister was an angel before she became reattached with her mother. She was my good friend last year in yellow pod and she was a beautiful and caring person who wouldn`t even hurt a fly. I want you to know that I care and will do anything to keep her by me somehow.

September 20, 2007

Beautiful Cheree, rest honey in the arms of your momma while protectimg and guiding the friends and family who find it almost impossible to go on without both of you.. What a place heaven must be with you beautiful angels...

Nikki Hamilton

September 12, 2007

Our daughter, KateLynne Pappas became friends with Cheree in January of last year, when KateLynne came to North Salem. Cheree wasted no time introducing herself and they quickly became good friends. We wish we had gotten the chance to meet your daughter/sister. What a gentle and kindred spirit! May you sense the peace that only God can give and may all the prayers lift you up and may you take comfort in knowing she is at peace in heaven and that you will join her one day. This passage from what I've been told about your daughter/sister, reminds me of her. II Corinthians 12:9-10- "My gracious favor is all you need. My power works best in your weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may work through me. Since I know it is all for Christ's good, I am quite content with my weaknesses and with insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong!
Stong she was!! Nikki and Bill Hamilton and KateLynne Pappas

September 6, 2007

Fahringer Family,

Cheree was a big part of Cody's life the past couple of years in school. He felt comfortable confiding in her like a sister. They shared many hopes and dreams for the future. They carried on and had serious conversations. She will definitely be missed. As Cody said God needed her to help take care of all the other small children that are in his kingdom. She was sweet, caring and treated others with the respect that only she deserved. You can be proud that you raised such a profound person with such character. Our sympathy is with you and as well as our prayers and thoughts.

A chorus that I wrote for my Grandmother when she went to be with the heavenly father:

On an eagles wing
Don't fly so high
Above the mountains
In the sky
Soaring in the wind
And through the clouds
In the morning
Not making a sound
How I loved you so
Through the years
And your legacy lives on

As well as her legacy will live on through all the hearts and minds that she has touched with heartprints.

The Hawkins family (Bev, Randy and Cody)

Myrta Lopez-Flores

September 6, 2007

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
