Daniel J. Cherry

Daniel J. Cherry, 19, of Auburn, NY passed away unexpectedly on November 10, 2022, in Buffalo, NY where he was attending University of Buffalo for Chemical Engineering. Dan was born in Syracuse on April 28, 2003, to his mom, Kimberly (White) and his father, Christopher Cherry. He is survived by his big sister Meghan and his younger brother Timothy. This is where the tradition ends. Dan had a great sense of humor, a beautiful smile, and curly hair that everyone wanted to run their fingers through.  He loved rock climbing with his friends, mowing the lawn with headphones on, listening to jazz, and talking about life. Dan would want everyone to know that life is short. Don’t hesitate to make that phone call or send a text to let your loved ones know that you care. Danny had a huge heart for animals, and is survived by Luna Bear, Jace, and Faranack; and predeceased by Hershey.  His life goal was to adopt senior pets from the pound because every doggie deserves to leave this world knowing that they are loved and not alone.  

In lieu of flowers please plant a tree, sponsor a rock-climbing club or adopt a senior doggie with lots of love. Rest in peace sweetheart. We love you Danny to the mountains and back!

Calling hours for Daniel will be held Tuesday, November 15th from 4pm - 7pm in White Chapel funeral Home Inc., 197 South Street, Auburn. A memorial service will be held privately for family. To offer condolences, please visit whitechapelfh.com.
