Cheryl Ann Wilson

1954 ~ 2020

Nearly 10 years ago, Cheryl was diagnosed with a genetic heart condition (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) and underwent traumatic open-heart surgery. She never fully recovered physically or spiritually from the effects of this condition. Cheryl passed away on July 22, 2020.

Her courageous heart lifted us all as she lived life in the most vivacious and heart-forward manner. Cheryl was born July 24, 1954, in Honolulu, Hawaii to Frank William Snow and Sue Ann Baguley. She grew up in the Salt Lake Valley where she graduated from Highland High School and later attended the University of Utah.

She worked in various occupations from receptionist to catalog designer. She had a passion for gardening, sewing, cooking, and being a mother to all. Cheryl was energetic, hardworking, talented, and loving; an incredible woman with captivating beauty. Her personality - magnetic; her spirit - bright; her laughter - contagious. She is sorely missed by all those who were fortunate to be touched by her beautiful soul.
