Cheryl A. Kelly Death Notice, – The J. H. Ketcham Hose Company wishes to convey its deepest condolences to Cheryl A. Kelly’s family and friends on the occasion of her demise. The indelible impression that Cheryl, a treasured member of our community and a devoted life member of our organization for the past 42 years, has left on our hearts and on our organization is difficult to erase.
Her role as the Auxiliary President since 2010, which she held with grace and unshakable devotion up to the time of her passing, was a prime example of Cheryl’s commitment and unflinching dedication to the organization. Without hesitation, she was always ready to go into the kitchen to cook breakfasts, dinners, and snacks for occasions or emergencies. She was the pillar upon which our operations were built. The only thing that could take the place of her culinary expertise was her generous nature.
Cheryl was exceptionally talented in the kitchen, but she also exemplified the genuine meaning of service. Cheryl was always ready to lend a helping hand and a friendly smile, whether it was at the request of a fellow member who was in need or a member of the community who was looking for aid. Her presence in our firehouse served as a source of solace and motivation for everyone who had the honor of getting to know her.
We will remember Cheryl not just for the essential contributions she made to our organization, but also for the kindness and compassion she gave to everyone she came in contact with. This is something that we will remember as we come to terms with this enormous loss. The absence of her creates a hole in our hearts that can never be replaced, and we will carry her memories with us for the rest of our lives.
At this moment, there is a lack of complete information surrounding Cheryl’s passing. In spite of this, we would like to request that you join us in keeping her family in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this challenging time. The legacy of sacrifice and dedication that Cheryl left behind will continue to motivate us in our efforts to fulfil our objective of serving and protecting our community. It is my hope that she finds eternal rest in the knowledge that her influence will be felt by future generations.
