A Daughter, A Sister, An Aunt, A Cousin, A Family member, A Friend. No matter what she meant to you, you never had to question her love. No matter what she gave, you know it came from her heart. No matter what you were doing, she made sure to be present and enjoy the moment.

She was a very devoted member of Columbus Christian Center, under the leadership of Dr. David C. Forbes, Jr., where she became active in various ministries. She served as a Church Greeter, and also served in Gods Hand Ministry, which distributes food to the community every 3rd Saturday of the month; all because she had a Christians heart for serving others. Some of the passions she had was investigating Genealogy; family was very important to her. She also enjoyed spending time learning about the history of the Underground Railroad. Working with Food Pantries and Senior Citizens helped her with the beautiful, unique, spirit of giving to others, even when she was never asked. She was a true example of a Christian/Disciple we should all strive to be. She also had a strong passion for baking and shopping.

She also leaves a niece, Jontunika (Derrick) Bailey and a nephew, Lawrence Brown II. She always felt as if she was their 2nd mother, and she was also very proud and supportive of all their accomplishments. She also leaves a grandmother, Lillian Lewis. There was a very special close friend she leaves to cherish Minister Linda Taylor. She also has a host of Aunts, Uncles, and cousins that she will also leave.

To the Brown Family- Cheryl was my lunch buddy many years at ODH. May Jehovah God – the God of Comfort keep you at this most difficult time.
Mr.& Mrs. Brown, May God dispatch his angels to comfort you & the family at this time of transition. It will be very different not seeing Cheryl come over on Thursday evenings or other days. I always knew she would be visiting because of my Ring going off when she came and when she left. Always a pleasant smile when I would have the opportunity to speak with her. She will be missed.
I enjoyed Ms. Cheryl’s smile and our conversations about genealogy. Wishing you family peace and comfort during this difficult time.
My sincere condolences to Cheryl’s loving family.

I send my deepest condolences to the Brown family in Cheryl’s passing. My first time seeing Cheryl was in passing over 18 years ago coming in and out the front doors of ODH.
B4 I retired over 2 years ago we worked together in BCMH. I remember she was kind, friendly, and a beautiful spirit-filled person. I could see God’s light was upon her.
I’ll never 4get Cheryl, as she was my Sister-in-Christ.
May God comfort you during this difficult season.

Sending My Sincerest Condolences To The Brown Family. Cheryl And I Went To Duxberry Elementary School and Jr High And Graduate from Brookhaven Together She Always Had A Smile On Her Face And Was Always Kind To Everyone. RIP
Cheryl and I worked together several years at ODH. Cheryl was a very special lady. She was a friendly and helpful person, a servant to the Lord and tried to be sensitive to the needs of others. She definitely loved her family. We shared several interests including spiritual matters, genealogy and of course work at ODH. We shared a lot of laughs at times and enjoyed dining together on occasion outside of the work place. Cheryl’s helpful and sweet spirit will be missed. I send my sincere condolences to her family.
This was a beautiful tribute to honor a very wonderful person who was full of life. Cheryl will
be truly missed by all. We feel lucky to have known her.
