Cherlinda Beltran Gerardo, age 74, passed away peacefully, leaving behind a legacy of love, faith, and devoted service.

She was born to Francisco Beltran (deceased) and Josefina Payas Beltran. As the eldest of her siblings, Cherlinda carried her role with strength and deep love for her family throughout her life.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Terry Gerardo Junior. She is lovingly survived by her devoted partner of 20 years, Dave Lawry; her children, Terry Gerardo III (married to Vivian Lee) and Katrina Escobar (partnered with Renato Hufana); and her cherished granddaughters, Cadence and Zoey Gerardo, who brought her immense joy.

Cherlinda is also survived by her mother, Josefina, and her siblings: Albert (Yvette), Rolando (Leovelyn), Girlie (Philip), Amardy (Jesusa), Eduardo (Antonette), and Jocelyn (Danilo), along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

A registered nurse for over 40 years, Cherlinda dedicated her life to caring for others with compassion and commitment. She loved spending time with family and friends, traveling, shopping, enjoying good food, and participating in Bible study. Her faith and love for her family were the foundations of her life.

She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
