JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A woman found dead Saturday in the parking lot of a business on Sunbeam Road has been identified by her sister as 24-year-old Cherrish Nunley, a mother of two.
According to a GoFundMe account started by her sister, Nunley was killed just weeks before what would have been her 25th birthday.

She leaves behind a 5-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son, “who she loved so very much,” her sister, Justine, wrote on the GoFundMe page.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said little information is available in Nunley’s case after she was found unresponsive in a parking lot that serves several businesses on Sunbeam Road, including a fitness center and several car-related businesses.
Police said Nunley was found just after 5 p.m. Saturday and died at the scene.
Justine praised the efforts of investigators as they work to solve her sister’s case.
“Our local police are doing a great job so far,” she wrote.
Justine said the money raised in the GoFundMe will help cover the unexpected funeral expenses and care for Nunley’s children. She did not have life insurance.
“She never got into trouble. She was a bright, beautiful girl, a wonderful mom and aunt, the best sister, and a great daughter,” Justine wrote. “We will forever remember her, and she will not be another statistic. We will fight for justice. We will fight for her babies. We will fight for her.”

She was one of three adults found dead in Jacksonville over the weekend.
Another woman’s body was found Sunday under a Blanding Boulevard bridge, and a man was found dead Saturday on the side of the road on East 15th Street.
