Cherryl Lee

Cherryl was the second of two daughters born to John and Emily Lynch. She was raised in Nashville and graduated from Donelson High School, class of 1961. She worked at Genesco and later at AT&T (formerly BellSouth) until she retired.

Cherryl loved the Lord and was active in her church, at times teaching Sunday School, volunteering in Vacation Bible School, and raising her sons in the admonition of the Lord. She loved to cook and was always trying new recipes. She was well known for her Poppy Seed Chicken and Fudge Pies. Her life was centered around her family and those she loved. She always expressed her love without reservation. She appreciated nature and loved feeding and watching birds in her yard.
