Cheryl was born on April 7, 1946, in Lincoln,

She married Galen Miller on September 19, 1964, and
together for over 61 years, they built a life
centered on faith and family.
Cheryl especially treasured time spent with her
children and grandchildren, who brought her great
joy. She loved serving others, and her warm
hospitality was one of the many ways she showed her
love. Cheryl loved the Lord and the local church and
served in many ways including Women’s ministry,
greeting team, and hospitality team. Cheryl looked
forward to spending her winters in Florida, where
she enjoyed making memories with family and friends.
She also loved her time fishing with Galen,
thrifting with the girls, and cheering on her
grandkids at their sporting events.
