My Condolences to The Family of Cheryl Armbrister-Smith.May her soul; and the souls of those departed RIP.
Delores Knowles-Rolle & Family.
Even though you are gone, CHERRY,
Your love will always be here with us.
You touched our hearts in so many ways.
But, God knew you were tired,
So, he took you home to get some rest,
Even though we love you, God always knows best.
Our hearts are filled with so much pain,
But, we know that God loves you more,
There’s no shame in admitting that.
At this time we must let go.
However, your memories we will keep a flow.
Rest our dear Cherry with your heavenly family.
Please tell everyone HELLO for me,
Especially Keyva and my Mom!
SIDEBAR.
I was reading your Death Notice, one evening when Peyton saw your photo and said ‘Oh, I know her. She is the nice lady whose house we visited in the Bahamas; she found my hand game I lost by her house. She was so kind she brought it to us. Why is her picture there? Of course, I told her. She said ‘WHAT?” …….there was a long pause. Then she said, “We’ll, she would have a friend in Heaven, MOMMY!”
BYE, LOVE YOU CHERRY!
It’s saddened my heart that one of my family members and childhood friend has left to be with her Heavenly Father. My family and I extended deepest condolence. May Sherry forever rest in peace with Him.
