Cheryl Sue Nizer

Cheryl Sue Nizer, 77, of Forest Hill, Maryland, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 30, 2025, surrounded by love. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, she was the cherished only child of the late Herbert Karle and Thelma (Geisel) Karle.

Cheryl was a woman of strong faith, quiet strength, and deep devotion to her family. She served as a church secretary—a role that reflected her love for God and her church community. It was through her faith that she met the love of her life, Ronald Alan Nizer, with whom she shared a long and loving marriage of 55 years built on commitment and grace.

Family was Cheryl’s greatest joy. She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother who gave endlessly of herself to those she loved. She is survived by her beloved husband, Ron; her children, Tim Nizer and his wife Heather; Chrissy Nizer, Melissa Nizer and her husband Adam Beavers; and her treasured grandchildren, Alexa Nizer and River Nizer. Cheryl was preceded in death by her daughter, Amy Nizer, as well as her parents.

A lifelong animal lover, Cheryl had a tender heart for dogs. She once helped deliver a litter of ten puppies and lovingly cared for them as if they were her own. She found peace and joy in nature—gardening, admiring flowers, collecting seashells at the beach, and spending quiet afternoons watching baseball and football. She also had a beautiful voice and loved to sing.

Above all, Cheryl will be remembered for the love she poured into her family. She created a home full of warmth, faith, and laughter, and her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
