Cheryl Jajko

She touched the lives of many through her gentle spirit, her deep compassion, and her ability to persevere with grace through life’s challenges.

Cheryl was the devoted mother of her daughter, Janessa, son-in law, Anthony, and the proud grandmother of her cherished granddaughter, Ayla, who brought immeasurable joy to her life. She maintained a lifelong bond with her former spouse and dear friend, Ron. Cheryl’s love for her family was fierce and unwavering—she held them at the center of her heart.

To know Cheryl was to witness quiet resilience. She carried her burdens with grace and showed up for others even in her hardest moments. Her strength was not loud or boastful, but steady and deeply rooted in love. She gave of herself freely and without hesitation, offering kindness, wisdom, and unconditional support to those around her.

Cheryl’s legacy will live on through the love she poured into her family, the example she set through her strength, and the lives she touched with her kindness. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

A memorial visitation for Cheryl will take place on Sunday, August 10, 2025 from 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM at Glueckert Funeral Home, 1520 N Arlington Heights Rd, Arlington Heights, IL 60004.
