Cheryl Werden Obituary

Cheryl Lynne Werden Cheryl Lynne Werden always deserved better than what she received. On April 2, 2012, stage four lung cancer took her life away. She is preceded in death by her father Rowland and two infant sisters. She was a completely selfless person. She always put her family and kids before her. She lived to see happiness and it was her time to feel some tranquility. She was born May 6, 1962 in Traverse City, Michigan to Margaret and Rowland Allen. Cheryl was the yougest of six siblings; Coleen Reynold, Brian Allen, Barbara Harger, Mark Allen and Kevin Allen. She raised three children; Daniel Massey and Megan and Barbara Werden. Cheryl joined her life with Frederick Neil Werden on January 28, 1994 in Toledo, Ohio. She loved spending time with her family and friends. She brought elation to any life that she touched in her 49 years. It seemed like she was happiest when she was fishing, cooking, gardening, or at the beach. Her life always had so much meaning and she really knew how to have a good time. Cheryl could have cheered up anyone. The world has suffered an immense loss and she will be greatly missed. She still lives on in our lives on in our hearts forever. The Lord has her soul now. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
