She is preceded in death by her Husband, Gordon in 2008, one daughter: Cathy Lee, one great grandson: Jonah Wiegel; and five siblings: Carl Shepherd, Paul Shepherd, Della Hocking, Dorothy Isely, Belva Farrey.
When Cleone wasn't helping on the farm or caring for her children she enjoyed reading a good book, watching her favorite westerns, cooking and baking for her family and friends, most notably her famous sugar cookies. She loved spending time in the garden both the flower and vegetable gardens and playing croquet on a warm summer's day.
In her journey through life, Cleone exemplified strength, resilience, and grace. Her memory will live on through the countless lives she has touched. As she is laid to rest, let us remember her with fondness and gratitude for the love and light she brought into the world.
