Cheryl Lee Bowser
Sept. 18, 1969 - Oct. 29, 2023
Cheryl Lee Bowser (Groff) passed away on October 29, 2023.
Known to many as the owner of Dragon Lair in Lebanon, and previously as a food service server for Lebanon School District. Many may also know her from her days working at Linn Lanes and Appletree Restaurant.
Cheryl loved to help those in need by fundraising, offering a roof and food to many in need, even offering help when she had nothing to give but love. Cheryl had many hobbies, including painting, drawing, and songwriting. Cheryl loved music and playing piano or her guitar with her kids and grandkids. Her favorite spots to find peace were the ocean and waterfalls, she loved stargazing and watching thunder storms.
She is survived by her mother Christine and step father DeMilt, her father Dennis, her daughters Amanda, Kayley, and Taylor Renae, 5 grandchildren, many siblings both blood and chosen, and so many friends.
There will be a Celebration of Life held on Sunday November 19, 2023 from 12 PM - 3 PM at Riverfront Community Center in Albany OR, located at 489 NW Water Ave.
All who knew her are welcome to drop in to join us in remembering a wonderful woman.
