Sending my sincere sympathy on Cherilyn's passing. I have lost touch with her since babysitting for her sons in the 1970's. I remember her as a warm and caring mother with a wonderful smile and a great laugh. May she rest in peace.

So sorry to hear of Cherilyn's death. I worked with her when the Sheriff's department was still in the same building with the Oshkosh PD. She was a professional but never took herself to seriously. She was clearly one of the good ones! Blessings to your family as you mourn her loss.
