Family had always been an important part of Cheryl’s life. She was from a big family being one of eight children. She loved spending time with her family, especially her children and grandchildren.

Cheryl enjoyed cooking and especially liked preparing the Christmas Eve dinner with her family every year. Cheryl was a dog and cat lover and always had animals in her home. She loved to watch the baseball games and was an avid Braves fan. She enjoyed trips to the mountains to view the scenery, especially during Fall. Cheryl loved to paint, be it pictures of birds or animals, a portrait of her mother and even painted a mural on her kitchen wall. She also enjoyed gardening, planting flowers and just being out in her yard. She had a great love for antiques & at one time was the owner of an antique store.
