Thank You

Thank you so much for all the cards, letters, flowers and food showered on our family as we said goodbye to our beloved PaPa Cherry. Special thanks to Jay and Cathy Hunn of Hunn, Black, and Merritt Funeral Home, Dr. Terri Workman and nurse Allison, Enhabit Home Health and Choice Hospice who sent angels disguised as nurses. Hospice nurse Kelli Craft amazingly walked us through goodbyes and made the experience surreal. Stidham Baptist Church and pastors Dane Yandell, Gene Cook and friend, David Blue, arranged a memorable tribute to a man who loved and honored Jesus.
