I still have fond memories of the road trip Cherri & I made to Orlando, Disney World and Circus World in the mid 1980's. Cherri's laugh was infectious and easily recognized, as was the sparkle in her eyes. A bit of mischief was usually unexpected. We reconnected when she returned to Johnson Controls many years later, and the same sparks were still with Cherri. She was a kind and gentle person, who I am glad to have know. My condolences to her family.

Cherri was such a good friend to so many people living at Lincoln Village. She will be missed by many and it's just not the same without her laughter and sassiness. We are so very sorry to not be able to attend her funeral tomorrow due to the weather. We said what would Cherri tell us, and she may have used a swear word or two as she would have said.....stay home and stay safe. God speed Cherri, you will always be loved. Jill and Jan from Lincoln Village.
