So sorry to hear of Cheri’s passing. It was a few years ago when Don and I ran into her at the cemetery which we visited every year since Coy’s death. We had some great times with Coy and Cheri. I lost Don in June 2014 so I know the pain you are feeling. My heart is with you.
Im so sorry for your loss. I loved her very much. I am honered to have been able to take care of her and get to know her. Im glad to have been one of her friends. She used to give my son rides around the facility on her chair. She will be deeply missed. Much love Cory Langford
