In her free time, Cheryl always seemed to keep herself busy. She enjoyed crafting and had a talent for making jewelry and crocheting. She kept her mind active while putting puzzles together and thoroughly enjoyed reading a good book when time allowed. Other than being a proud mother to her only daughter Emily, it was the birth of her grandson Logan that filled her with joy!
Cheryl is survived by her only daughter, Emily (Scott) Bevans; grandson, Logan Bevans; and sisters, Charlotte Leigh Sellars, Christine Ebenroth, Carol (Terry) Flynn, and Caren Kwelose. Numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends also survive.
She is preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Mark Kwelose.
