Cheryl "Cheri" Ann Kirk (Elkin)

Cheryl was a caring wife, mother, sister and friend. She passed away unexpectedly at Regions Hospital in St Paul MN on April 13th, 2021 at the age of 63. Even though her failing body took her away from this world she left behind her loving heart and a selfless gift of organ donation.
Cheryl was born to Irvin and Janet Elkin on June 21st 1957 in Amery, WI.

She graduated from Amery High school and attended Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College for healthcare. Much of her career was spent as a nursing assistant at St Mary's Nursing Home in Highland Park. She also did home health care around St Paul MN where she lived for many years. Eventually life would bring her back to her hometown of Amery. She married Jerry Kirk and they resided in Amery and ultimately settled down in Clayton.  She would regularly care for countless nieces, nephews, and family friends and had a passion for helping others.  She enjoyed spending her free time with Jerry and especially liked their walks around the neighborhood, watching their favorite shows, and being in each other's company.
