Dear Buysse family - I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Cheri and of the passing of Chuck in December. I will always remember them for their smiles, joyful spirit, and kindness. Keep all your memories of them close by. These memories will help to lift you up when the grief gets heavy. May God grant you strength and peace. My deepest sympathy,

I so remember Cheri, Mrs. Buysse at HRS working with me and helping me to feel good about myself and my disabilities(different abilities), and that I was no different than anyone else, everyone has different abilities. I remember how hard she worked with Mr. Schommer to teach me how to finally balance and ride a two wheel bike, in 6th grade, so I could ride along with all of my friends. It was a mountain of an achievement both for her and for me. I remember the day at the chapel, when we both were called up to receive a achievement award for this awesome accomplishment which helped me to believe her saying "you can do it, you will do it!" She was an awesome teacher that always made you feel good about yourself. I am in PA. , so could not attend your funeral today. Prayers to your family Cheri. Jeff

I subbed for Cheri on several occasions after I had retired. She was a phenomenal teacher and it showed through the high interest the students had towards the curriculum she taught and the respect the students had for subs. I admired her respect towards all students. Dennis Larson

Story shared: horses, my dad & act of kindness

Mon, 05 Feb 2018 10:30:55 EST

Cheri and I are cousins.Growing up our famlies farmed together and lived 1 mile apart so we used to see alot of each other. Her and my sister Julie were close in age and would hang out and do a lot of things together but I mostly remember them for their Love of riding horses. The would often be riding from our farm to their farm and back and forth.I can see them in heaven riding horses together.

Prayers for strength in the days ahead.

Also my dad Ray Kirk (Cheir's only living Unce on the Kirk side) was sharing stories yesterday He always had fond memories of Cheri thru the years but he remembers all his stops at the Buysse farm as he was on his way to Marshall or from Marshall when he would see Cheri or Chuck outside he would stop and chat for a few minutes.

One more memory: last Friday my dad and I saw Cheri in Hyvee where she was stopping to by a flower for a young girl who had been so thoughtful when Cheri's husband had died 2 months earlier, this young girl had given Cheri a flower, Cheri was so appreciatve of that girls thoughtfulness that she was buying her a flower and taking it to her at a game the girl was playing at. it real touched my heart and I hope that this young girl realizes that her act of kindness really meant a lot to Cheri. We could all take a lesson from that young girl. Whoever you are Thank You...

We are deeply saddened to hear of Cheri's passing. We only met her one time about 2 weeks ago at Rochester but we have thought of her often. What a beautiful soul that left a lasting impression on us. Eternal rest grant on to her oh Lord. and peace to those she left behind.

Our hearts ache for Cheri's beautiful family. There is never an easy way to say goodbye to the ones we love. She was one of the kindest people I ever had the privilege to know. When we were young and starting out, Cheri and Chuck took a chance on us and sold us their mobile home contract for deed. We have never forgotten that kindness and their willingness to help out a young broke couple just starting out. Glenn has known Cheri since growing up in Balaton and we have always been blessed to call her friend. May she rest peacefully with the love of her life. Well done good and faithful servant.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Ms.Buysse. Our thoughts and prayers go out to The family. Skylar really enjoyed having her as a teacher and loved driving by her house on the way home and seeing her out in the yard or by the horse shed. She would always wave if she seen us. Our condolences.
