Obituary For CHERICE JOY MARIOTT

Our mothers life reflects the heart of a lotus, rising above challenges to bring beauty, compassion, and hope to others. As a caregiver, she has devoted herself to serving people with disabilities, those facing hardship, and individuals who often feel unseen. Her kindness is not measured by words alone but by the countless lives she has touched through patience, sacrifice, and unwavering love.

The Heart of a Lotus

Like a lotus blooming bright and true,
Mom, the world was bright through you.
Rooted in compassion, steadfast and strong,
You lifted weary hearts and helped them belong.

You could see the worth in those overlooked,
Reading stories where others never looked.
With gentle hands and a caring soul,
You helped broken spirits become whole.

For those with disabilities, you stood near,
Offering comfort, dignity, and cheer.
For those with less, you opened your heart,
Showing that kindness itself is an art.

Like a lotus rising from waters deep,
Your faith and love are promises you keep.
Through every challenge, struggle, and test,
You continued to give your very best.

Mom, your life was a light,
A beacon of hope shining through the night.
May the love you've shared return to you,
For the heart of a lotus lives in all you do. ๐ŸŒธ

Until we meet again. Gone, but will never be forgotten.

Forever in our hearts.

Love,

Ida, Tami & Tera

    Dearest Aunt Cherice, You lived life exactly the way you wanted. Full of fun and adventure. As much as you and my mom were alike, you were also totally different. Completing each other. When she was serious you were amused, you brought out her silly and together you were soooo fun. I loved you both so much. Rest easy and take care of one another where ever you are. Love, Brendy
