From Tammy Clark:
I am saddened of Cheryl's passing. She was a kind down to earth type of gal. I can hear her saying" it just doesn't matter". Many memories of her coming to Minnesota. One in particular when we were "the dancing queens" at Webb Lake. Another when we were in Florida and she took us out on her boat on the Intra-coastal. WOW. I was in awe. Just a couple of the many memories I'll cherish forever. Rest in peace Cheryl. You will be missed by many. Lots A Love. Tammy

The memories I have of my cousin Cheryl were her joyful spirit and kind hearted inclusive nature. She had a knack for conversing with anyone, making them feel welcome. It was always such a happy moment to see her return to Minnesota for the special family events to honor others. My mom was her godmother, and that relationship was a very special one to my mother. Keeping all of you in prayer as you face this loss. Let the warm memories of her generous nature embrace you.

Cheryl.... A lot of my memories were from when I was younger. Specifically I remember going to visit, rollerblading around the neighborhood and near the pool, enjoying the home and everything around yet. Cheryl was filled with laughter- and yes I can hear that laugh right now- and she was fun. I will miss her dearly and we are keeping the family and everybody in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear she passed. I was blessed to have met her at John's celebration of life. We had fun celebrating his life. RIP Tell John I said Hi!

Cheryl and I (sister Cathy) were inseparable growing up. We were actually best friends throughout our grade school years. We did everything together when we were kids.
Suzanne mentioned the family camping trips. We sure had fun with those. Venturing out about the campgrounds day and night, having roaring campfires, meeting new people, etc. Lots of shenanigans!
As we got a little older, we each developed our "friends circles", but we remained close. When she moved off to Florida in high school, we had to continue our relationship via phone calls and in-person visits. That wasn't too bad, heading down to Florida in the winter!
She met her wonderful husband-to-be, Charlie there. They eventually got married and had a lovely family. She loved coming back to Minnesota with her kids and her friend Aimee, just to take in some of the cooler weather and catch up with the rest of the family. We're sure going to miss her.
Good -bye Cheryl. Until we meet again. I love you!

Cheryl seemed to love growing up in Minnesota. Camping in the summer was an experience she liked. She also enjoyed hanging out with her sister Cathy and friends. But once she moved to Florida, she was pretty much hooked.
She was very talented in making crafts. She often worked with suedes and leathers making wallets, belts, purses and unique patchwork suede bottle coverings. From her early teens she enjoyed jewelry making working mostly with beads and suedes. And she was happy to share her talents to teach others these crafts if they were interested.
Anyone that knew Cheryl, pretty much knew her catchphrase was, "It doesn't matter". But Cheryl did matter, to a great many people. Cheryl was taken too soon and will be dearly missed. I love you Cheryl.
Suzanne
