One of Cheryl’s many passions was gardening. She was a Master Gardener and helped keep up the grounds and flower beds at many rest areas in Michigan. Cheryl loved their family pets, especially their dogs, along with birds and butterflies. She also gave a lot of her time to volunteer work. Whether it was through the Read and Ride program or the Kids with Dogs program through Gull Lake Community Schools or the Gateway Academy, she was always willing to donate her time.

Cheryl was a beautiful soul, who was gracious, caring, kind and compassionate. She was cherished by her family, many friends and all who knew her and will be greatly missed. Cheryl is truly “loved forever and a day.”
