Letter to the Editor

Your view: Work appreciated

Friday, July 16, 2004

We would like to thank the Scott County Sheriff's Department for their hard work and dedication on Cheryl Anne Scherer's case. For the past 25 years the staff have shown professionalism in finding Cheryl after she disappeared from the Scott City gas station where she worked. It is evident this case has become a personal commitment to each of them and we are pleased with the work they have done and will continue to do.

Bill Ferrell will be retiring soon and we want to extend thanks from our hearts for the countless hours he and his staff have spent trying to locate Cheryl. We appreciate their diligence in never giving up and investigating all leads that develop. Their perseverance and determination is what helps keep us going.

With heartfelt thanks,

Raymond, Libby, Anthony and Diane Scherer
