Cheryl L. (Cosma) Calvin

LOWELL - Cheryl L. (Cosma) Calvin died peacefully on Sunday, February 7, 2021, at Care Dimensions in Lincoln, MA.
Cheryl was born on January 25, 1947, daughter of Edna M. (Young) and George Cosma in Youngstown, Ohio. She graduated with high honors from Chaney High School and attended Trumbull Memorial Hospital School of Nursing in Warren, Ohio. Upon graduating with high honors, she was employed at the Cleveland Clinic as a medical-surgical nurse. When she relocated to the Akron, Ohio area, she was employed at St. Thomas Hospital. She moved to Lowell over ten years ago.
Cheryl enjoyed vacationing in the Caribbean and Cape Cod. She spent years of summer vacations with friends and family in these locations, cooking scrumptious meals and never tiring of the sun and surf. She spent one 'annual day of gardening' at her home on the Portage Lakes in Ohio where she planted large flower boxes that bloomed profusely the rest of the summer. Cheryl loved hosting dinner parties and family picnics which she planned with skill and care from 'soup to nuts' so all her guests would enjoy every moment.
Cheryl is survived by her sister, Janice, and her husband, Patrick McCabe of Lowell, and her nieces, Mary Elizabeth, Amanda, and Maureen and their families. She is survived by her good friend, Diane Schmitz of Medina, Ohio. She has many cousins including Rick and Renee Thomas of St. Petersburg, FL.
Cheryl was predeceased by her beloved sister Susie in 1996.
Services to honor and celebrate Cheryl's life were private. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her name to Care Dimensions Hospice House, 125 Winter Street, Lincoln, MA, 01773, where Cheryl was treated with care, respect, and love as she went from this world into the next.
