Cynthia Cherry, daughter of Don Cherry, passes away at 67.

In a somber announcement, the family of Don Cherry revealed the unexpected passing of his daughter, Cynthia Cherry, who died on July 15, 2024, at the age of 67.
The news was confirmed through a family statement and various social media posts, marking a significant loss for the Cherry family and their close associates.
" In Celebration of Cynthia Margaret "Cindy" Cherry March 29, 1957 - July 15, 2024 Passed away unexpectedly, at Trisom Health University, surrounded by her beloved son Jason (Caroline Lukasik). "

Cynthia, affectionately known as Cindy, passed away at Trisom Health University. She was surrounded by loved ones, including her son Jason and his wife Caroline Lukasik.
The family described her as a dearly loved mother, sister, and aunt, emphasizing her role in their lives and the void her passing has created.
The funeral arrangements are as follows: Friends and family are invited to pay their respects at Turner & Porte "Cedar" Chapel, located at 110 Cherry Street, on Friday, July 21st from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
A private family ceremony will take place at Cedar's Cemetery in Kingston. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested donations to the Born Cherry Fund Rescue, a cause close to Cindy's heart.
In addition to her immediate family, Cindy leaves behind her sister, Tina (Phil) Peel, and niece, Grace. Her beloved companion, Ronan, also predeceased her, adding to the family's grief.
Following his daughter's passing, Don Cherry, a legendary figure in NHL broadcasting, has withdrawn from public life and social media.
He had previously transitioned from broadcasting to podcasting, focusing on his program "Coach's Corner." The loss of his daughter has profoundly impacted him, leading to a pause in his public engagements.
Our thoughts are with the Cherry family during this difficult time, and we extend our deepest condolences to all those affected by this significant loss.
