Cheryl Lynn Henning, age 72 and a resident of Chesaning, Michigan, died at home on June 19, 2023 with her family at her side.
Cheryl was born on October 14, 1950 in Saginaw, Michigan, the daughter of Delores Marie Paolucci and grew up in Saginaw, where she was a Class of 1968 graduate of Douglas MacArthur High School and enjoyed a twenty-seven year career as a secretary with Covenant Center for the Heart.
She is survived by her loving daughter, Shawn M. Brainerd and her children, Andrew & Alec; her loving daughter, Shelley L. Martin and her children, Austin Martin & Ericka Brainerd; step-daughter, Kimberley Henning and her children, Raven Beccera, Audrey & Stella Lanczynski; great grandchildren, Andala, Mikal, and Dax Brainerd, many extended family members, along with her best friend, Paula Anderson, and many other dear friends who join her family both in mourning her passing and giving thanks for her life among them.
Cheryl met Frederick Joseph Henning in 1997, and they wed on April 1, 2006. Fred survives her, and will miss her dearly. They made their home in Chesaning, where Cheryl enjoyed caring for her yard, flowering bushes and shrubbery. She was artistic and creative, enjoyed beadwork and making jewelry for family and friends, and K-Mart was her favorite store. Most of all, she loved her family, and her grandkids and great grandkids, who were the highlight of her life. As much as she loved them, Cheryl was also loved by all that knew her. Her humor would light up a room, her strength was acknowledged by everyone that knew her. She was known for her great cooking and baking and took pride in feeding and taking care of her family. She will be dearly missed by them all.
