I met Cheryl at a barbeque festival in Columbus in 2013.I had just came to America a few months before and she gave me some very good advice such as how to get financing to go to school. I did take her advice and graduated in January of 2016.Ever since I trusted her judgement.She had a good heart and I will always miss talking to her. May her soul rest in peace.
