Cheryl Lynn Lawrence, 63, of Longview Texas, passed away September 9, 2020, after a long battle with cancer.
She was born to Barbara Jo Storms and Ronald Eugene Pope on August 6, 1957 in Leesville, Louisiana. She passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home in Longview, Texas with her husband at her side.
Cheryl is survived by her husband of 39 years Jeffrey Lawrence of Longview, Texas and 3 children: Patricia Lawrence (Colorado Springs, CO), Dario Linklore (Charleston, SC) , and John Lawrence (CW2 -Colorado Springs, CO).
Cheryl spent 13 years in the Army as a Polish Linguist and transitioned to a position as an IT Training Technician before achieving her dream of becoming a Registered Nurse specializing in Cardiac Care and ICU Care. She was a feisty, energetic, sweet and caring woman who loved taking the opportunity to playfully smack her husband for his spirited comments and silly sense of humor. As her health declined, Cheryl worried more for her family than for herself.
Cheryl did not want a funeral service, insisting she be cremated and her ashes be spread among the roses. The family will observe a celebration of life in her honor, and they encourage others to memorialize all the loving and joyous time we had with her on this earth.
