This wonderful lady was always willing to search in faraway places for needed research materials, always with a smile and a quiet bit of conversation. God love her!

I knew Cheryl from the Knitting Shoppe. She was such a happy person and we loved to share stories, laughter, current events, and life experiences as we sat around the knitting table on Thursday afternoons. You were taken far too soon and you will be missed by all who knew you. Rest in peace dear Cheryl.

I worked with Cheryl at the library. After I left I would see Cheryl around town. In the recent past I often saw Cheryl at Hy-Vee. Cheryl and I were always glad to see each other and catch up. I had noticed that I haven’t seen Cheryl and wondered why.

I will always remember seeing you at our family picnics and 4th of July parties.

You raised amazing children that were some of the best people to be around when I was growing up.

I will always remember the sidebar conversations we had. You were one interesting person to speak with.

I am glad you and Uncle Peter had each other and know your love will stay with him and sustain him.

Sending all the love and positivity I have to Uncle Pete and my cousins in this hard time.

Cheryl was a long-time member of St.Mary's Prayer Shawl Ministry. She knit the most beautiful baby blankets for our keepsake to St.Mary's parents for their baby's baptism. Some recent items were knit double-stranded, others were small mitered-corner blocks of different colors with a knitted lace border. Any baby would love to snuggle under Cheryl's lovely stitches of love! I will miss her smile, her quiet pace of continental knitting at the table which I loved to watch. Her friendship was very special to me.

Rest in God's loving peace dear friend.
