Cheyenne Collins Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Forest Meadows Funeral Home - Gainesville on Dec. 17, 2025.
It is with a mixture of sorrow and joy that we celebrate the life of Cheyenne R. Collins, who passed away on December 13, 2025, at the young age of 29. Born on May 23, 1996, in Largo, Florida, Cheyenne was a vibrant spirit known for her passion for animals and her unwavering dedication to their welfare. She touched the lives of many as an Animal Caretaker at the Humane Society, where her compassion and kindness shone through in everything she did.
Cheyenne cherished her family deeply and is survived by her loving father, Robert Collins; her devoted mother, Sherry Wright; her beloved sisters, Brittany and Jaquelyn Collins; her cherished niece, Arya Armstrong; as well as Ly'Anie and Caden Proctor, who she loved and cared for as her own. Cheyenne's bond with her family was a testament to her loving nature, and she will be remembered for her infectious laughter and warm heart.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Humane Society in Cheyenne's memory, so her legacy of love and animal welfare can continue on. Cheyenne will forever remain in our hearts as a radiant beacon of compassion and joy, reminding us all to cherish each moment and live life fully.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Forest Meadows Funeral Home 725 NW 23rd Ave Gainesville FL 32609...325-378-2582
