Cheryl lived in Florida for 40 years and loved walking on the beach collecting shells, a good cup of coffee, watching old Westerns, “just a little something sweet”, cooking an egg, or making the best hamburgers for her family. Cheryl was beautiful inside and out. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.
