Cheri Lea England

Cheri Lea England, 59, of Welch, West Virginia, passed away peacefully at home on Tuesday, October 21, 2025.
Born September 16, 1966, in Welch, WV, she was the beloved daughter of the late Lewis Pierce and Janice Kirk Pierce.
Cheri had a warm and lively spirit that touched everyone who knew her. She was a true people person-never met a stranger-and her energy lit up every room. Whether she was singing along to her favorite songs, catching an episode of The Price is Right, or watching sports with her family, Cheri always brought joy to those around her. She lived life fully, loved deeply, and laughed often. She was a loving daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend.
In addition to her father, Cheri was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, Lewis Pierce and Mary Alice Hunley, and her maternal grandparents, Gaylord and Pearl Fleming Kirk.
Left to cherish her memory are her mother, Janice Pierce of Princeton, WV; her daughters, Candace Burnette and husband David of Princeton, WV, and Terri Agovida and husband Raymart of Florida; her sisters, Denise Pierce of the home and Deanna Justice and husband Michael of Lerona, WV. She was a proud grandma to her grandchildren: Shawn and Jessie England, LillyAnn, Evan, and Axl Hayth. She also leaves behind her nephews Lewis Pertee, Harley Pertee, and Alex Justice; great-nephews Andrew and Aiden Pertee; and a host of other family and dear friends who will miss her greatly.
Cheri's legacy is one of love, laughter, and an unshakable bond with her family. She will be remembered for her kind heart, her big personality, and the joy she brought into the lives of others.
Graveside services will be held on Monday, October 27, 2025, at 1 o'clock at the Maple Hill Cemetery in Bluefield, Virginia. Burial will follow. Family will serve as pallbearers.
