Cheryl (aka Sherri, Sherrie, Sherry) was an amazingly wonderful person, true friend, and much loved neighbor. So kind, loving, and "real" with everyone. I have missed her sorely since she first went into the hospital. She became part of my family many years ago, was an extremely important friend and person in my life, and will remain in my heart and part of me forever. Much love to you all who she loved and was loved by. Enjoy heaven and eternal life, my friend! 💓
