About this fundraiser

On April 22,2025 our loving Cheryl left this world unexpectedly. She was a devoted mother and soul caretaker for her son Nathan Smires who was the victim of a shooting that left him paralyzed and requiring constant care. Cheryl did not have any money set aside for final expenses as her costs of living were already great! She will be cremated as she had wanted but no burial or funeral. We feel a celebration of life is best for everyone to get together and celebrate this loving woman who spent her life taking care of others. Once expenses are situated we will be posting the exact dates and time for the celebration. Please remember this family has been experiencing significant financial hardship in recent years and need the community to come together to support this wonderful woman.
