REMEMBERING CHERYL TEAMER

______

HON. TROY A. CARTER

of louisiana

in the house of representatives

Friday, August 27, 2021

Mr. CARTER of Louisiana. Madam Speaker, I rise today to remember and mourn constituent, activist, public servant, lawyer, businesswoman and dear friend, Cheryl Teamer. She died this weekend at the age of 58.

A native of New Orleans, she earned her law degree at Tulane University and worked to get things done in City Hall in Mayor Marc Morial's administration.

She then worked in government relations and founded her own consultancy and advising firm.

We all knew her for her incredible ability to multitask 20 different things at the same time, and to do it with a sense of joy.

She built relationships and bridges between people of all backgrounds and walks of life.

She loved to be in the thick of it--whatever was happening.

Cheryl Teamer was accomplished, kind, big-hearted and rooted in the New Orleans community.

She will be deeply missed. Rest easy, my friend.
