Growing up on a cattle ranch, Cheri loved horses. She "galloped" instead of walking and running. She loved to wear large round braids in her hair. One day her mother heard Cheri calling for help! Cheri's braid was looped over her horse's saddle horn, she was dangling there, and her horse was standing!
Cheri enjoyed collecting dice, horseback riding and horse racing. Cheri was so loved by her family and many friends. She was always happy and smiling.
