    Cherri was the best part of all of us. She knew when you needed a shoulder, a laugh or motivation. Her smile filled the room and her friendship is an honor to have had. God speed my dear friend. Love you always.

    Ug. I am deeply saddened to hear about this loss. Seems I am constantly reminded these days how short and fragile life is and selling my sole to my work my whole life seems like a waste of a sort. Cheri will be remembered as a friend and will never be forgotten.

    I am so sorry for you’re loss. There were many people who loved her. I was priviled to sing Christmas carol’s at her house with a large number of friends form the Moose Lodge. It brought tears to my eyes. You could feel the love everyone had for her. Rest in peace.

    Our hearts are so saddened. Cherri was a great true friend. Her smile was like a ray of Sunshine🌞. She would walk into a room and just make everything feel good💗 She always thought of others first before herself.💞 She was a cheerleader who would always cheer on our children and always let us know how proud she was of them. Our hearts go out to you Doug and Mikayla and to all her family and friends. She will be so very missed by our family.

    She will be Forever in my Hearts. oxox

    With Love and Friendship, The Schnake Family😘
