    I can’t believe you are no longer here. I imagine you’re riding your beautiful horse “ Thunder “ and your Dad Bill and my Dad Elmer are welcoming you to the kingdom of Heaven. Dad take care of your “Cherie Berry “
    You are not only the greatest wife a man could hope for but also my sole mate.
    You have such a loving heart for people especially your family and for animals. Your love for horses has no limits.
    I was looking forward to us retiring together.
    I’m lost without you. I love you Cherie. I look forward to the day I’m with you again.
    Until then rest easy I will be ok, I have our children (Jessica and Richard) and Grandchildren (Anna, Lola and Jacob) to help me go on.
    41 years together is just the start. I’ll see you soon.
    Love always
    Richard https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b00695b061a6349a4cda04df2c0fd1a75dd545d506a5fc0c2c72e63b8199d2a4.jpg

    We lost a truly beautiful soul. Cherie loved my brother with a devotion that could be felt by everyone around them. She cared fiercely for her family, always putting their needs before her own, and she adored her animals—each one held a special place in her heart. Her giving spirit had no limits, and her kindness touched the lives of everyone who was lucky enough to cross her path. The world feels a little dimmer without her. We will carry her with us always.

    We lost a truly beautiful soul. Cherie loved my brother with a devotion that could be felt by everyone around them. She cared fiercely for her family, and she adored her animals. Her kindness touched the lives of everyone lucky enough to meet her.

    The world feels a little dimmer without her, but we will carry her with us always. She had a way of making people feel welcome and loved, and she always made me feel like part of the family, even though I couldn’t visit as often as I would have liked. Despite the distance, she made it seem like I was always there, always included, and always remembered. That was the kind of heart she had, and it’s a gift I will treasure forever.
