That smile though. One of the most genuine smiles I know. It wasn’t like she was trying to say “hi I’m happy, I’m fine” but “hi, I see you and I love you”. I will never forget my last memory of her. I briefly got to say hello the last service she attended. She gave me that smile and I was so happy she was back. Cherry is one of those rare people that you always find yourself talking about God with. It’s like she was incapable of having a conversation without inserting Him because He infiltrated every part of her life. What a rare jewel. I am so jealous the heavens have her at the expense she is taken from us, but looking forward to seeing that smile one day again.
I am so glad to have known Mrs. Cherry. She was a beautiful woman inside and out who always strived for truth. Mrs. Cherry and Mr. Al have made an impact in our lives. Here we are celebrating havdalah together with friends. While we will miss you, we know that you are rejoicing and complete.
Cherry was a light for everyone. She was beautiful inside and outside. I missed her so much when she went to a different church, but she was someone I adored and we stayed in touch always through Facebook. She was full of passion! I know she is all well now and happy to be with her Jesus. She knew Him well and shared Him everywhere. She has left a great legacy, so I pray all the kids will follow her advice and the example she led. I know how dearly Al loved her too, and I’m praying for all of you.
