Dear Skip and Helen and family…I am so very sorry to hear that Cheryl passed. I did not know that she was ill, but I DO know that she was surrounded by the most loving and giving family anyone could hope for. I want you to know that I carry such great memories of Cheryl and Twilla and Mike and the farm and all those years you wonderful folks fed all us kids….you took such great care of us…Please know that I have you each in my prayers…I know that Cheryl is not far away…God and His angels needed her for some very tough project that only she could organize and complete…she remains one of the finest examples of the modern version of a frontier woman with Kansas common sense and “get-the-job-done” character that ever walked this earth. I wish you comfort and the Lord’s grace at this time and always. Much love to you, Kim Murphree
