Cheryl Berg

Cheryl Ann Berg, age 76, was called home to be with the Lord on Sunday March 2, 2025 surrounded by her family. She was born to the late Harold and Mary (Corrigan) Gerou in Racine, WI on April 24, 1948. Cheri married Loyal Berg on June 17, 1967 at St Peter's in Oshkosh. They were blessed to enjoy 58 years of marriage.

Cheri was best known for her customer service work at Klines Department store and Werner Electric. Her divine skill and love language was cooking and baking for those she loved. Upon Cheri's retirement, she enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren and traveling with her husband, Loyal. It would not be out of the ordinary for Cheri and Loyal to take adventures out of town for the simple pleasure of grocery shopping or enjoying a new restaurant they came across. For many years they would winter in Sarasota, FL at Sun and Fun. Their favorite trip included traveling to Ireland twice.

Cheri is survived by her loving husband Loyal, two children: Kristen (Matt) Footit, Keri (Jason) Hammen; grandchildren Carter (Lilli) Footit, Megan Footit (Fiancé Drew Ashley), Kennedy Footit (Braden Jiricka), Caden Hammen, Hailey Hammen (Nathan Antti), Gavin Hammen; brother; Christopher (Jodi) Gerou. In laws, John (Patty) Berg, Joan (Mike) Ulrich, Ann (Mike) Stoy. Best friends and partners in crime, Nancy Kubasta and Betty Dorow, as well as many special nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents Harold and Mary Gerou; in-laws, Loyal and Adeline Berg; sister Cindi Mischnick; brother-in-law Jim Berg; nephew Cory Gerou.

Please join Cheri's family on Monday, March 10th, 2025 from 9:30 am to 11:00 am for a visitation with a Catholic Mass to follow at St. Raphael the Archangel Catholic Church (830 Westhaven Dr., Oshkosh, WI). In lieu of flowers, a memorial is being established in Cheri's name.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Theda Clark Hospice for the love and compassion they provided during this difficult time.

Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you,

May the wind be always at your back,

May the sunshine warm upon your face,

and the rain fall soft upon your fields,

and until we meet again,

May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
