Cheryl often commented that her grandchildren were the highlight of her life. Cheryl loved her family and her God, being an active member of the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah"™s Witnesses her entire life. She had a very firm belief in Jehovah God and His Son Christ Jesus. As such, she eagerly looked forward to the fulfillment of God"™s promise of the restoration of this earth to a paradise, as he had originally purposed with the Garden of Eden. Her wonderful ability to make those around her feel better about themselves will be missed by all those that had the opportunity to know her. Her family realizes that her suffering has ended and that she is at peace, but will miss her each and every day. A memorial service will be held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah"™s Witnesses, 9100 N.
