MUM AND DAD
Back to her Mum. Cherisse’s parents were instrumental in shaping the person she is today. “Mum taught me to be ethical, hardworking, and kind to everyone. My dad was an insurance underwriter for General Insurance. My parents were the greatest influence in my life. They instilled the values of morals, Integrity, good ethics, proper manners and to treat people with respect and courtesy no matter who they are or what level of society. They taught me the value of family and to always help others if in the position to do so. My dad was my biggest inspiration. Despite all the setbacks he experienced in life, he always had a positive attitude. He never let anything knock him down. He was always humble and kind and would do without quietly to make sure his family had what they needed. He was always willing to help someone in need and never expected anything in return. He had the biggest heart.” Cherisse and her husband raise their 2 kids with that in mind. So, Go Lime with Cherisse and let her find you your perfect new home!
