Sad news from New Jersey this Saturday morning....
Jim Miller reports that Cheryl passed away about 9:35 AM EDT Saturday morning at Brick Hospital near their home in New Jersey. Jim said she had a peaceful night and was at her side when she passed.
Jim said it was the way it should be, she was feeling no pain and he was able to say goodbye the way he wanted to.
Cheryl always had a smile for everyone and a bad word for none. She's finally free of pain.
There will a memorial service in New Jersey and her ashes will be interred in her native Oklahoma.
Details to follow.

Today, at 9:35 AM, Cheryl passed away and will have to suffer no longer. She knew the folks from NORML as friends, and considered being recognized at the NORML 2003 conference as something that will last forever. Me, I consider the Peter McWilliams Memorial plaque as paying respect to Cheryl in a way that she understood and deserved. Thanks for standing by us in our effort to lobby for a Barney Frank bill in April. That was a trip that I will always feel that Cheryl should have been allowed to fulfill. She really enjoyed being in DC. That's where Cheryl knew she was able to be effective for those that need medical marijuana rights. She was quite a hero.
There will be a memorial service at Silverton Memorial Funeral Home, 2482 Church Road, Toms River, NJ, 08753 starting at 7:00 PM Monday (June 9) until 8:30 PM. I will take Cheryl's ashes to Oklahoma for a service at her final resting place, with her son Ricky who passed away at 16 years of age in 1984. That is the
I.O.O.F. Cemetery, Norman Oklahoma, tentatively scheduled for Friday (June) 13.
I'll keep Gary Storck up with further details as things evolve or get back to me here if you need to.
Jim Miller
