I just learned about this last night. My heart goes out to the entire family. Allen and Cheryl always made me feel welcome and loved. It has been to long since I've seen your faces, but I can still hear her laugh and see her smile in my mind, like a saw it yesterday. The strength and warmth this family shares with each other and those lucky enough to be touched by it, gives me peace knowing that you are ok. But if there is ever anything I can do please reach out. I love and miss you all, and I am so sorry for your loss.

I’m so sorry to hear of Cheryl’s illness and passing away. I loved reading about her family marriage-home-business. 50 years…. I know our beloved “Mr VanMeter†will share truth about God, life, and passing into forever as a repentant sinner…. There is sure hope for all of us. God bless the Johnson, Hurst, and Sory family members.

What a precious lady she was to so many. She was so good to her kids and mine. She fought Cancer like a champ. Encouraged me in my own cancer battle and was always positive to the outside world.
To the family, we love you all and hope you find peace in knowing that this beautiful soul suffers no more. She will be waiting with open arms for each of you.
