My deepest sympathy for you and your family. As I was writing a note to you I thought that there are literally no words to say that can comfort you at this time. I love you and you are in my prayers. It’s very difficult to lose somebody like Cheryl. And to lose a sister is devastating. Love to you all Linda Calgaro

Flora and Burt, I FC heard from Cheryl before almost every election. She was either a Poll worker or a constable. She would also ask me when her mail and ballot was coming out. We would talk on the phone so long, but my bosses got mad at me. What a wonderful person! She will be missed. May her name be forever a blessing.
