Cheri was born and raised in Albert Lea, MN. She married her high school sweetheart, Mike Wehrenberg, who honorably served in the US Navy. They began their newlywed life in San Diego, CA. They had two children, Kristi Williams of Orlando, FL, and Blake Wehrenberg of Norman, OK. After the untimely death of her husband, Cheri worked hard to provide for her family. She proudly earned a certification in sports massage and therapy. She worked in the Twin City’s supporting her small family for many years before moving home to care for her parents after both her children joined the Navy, following in their father’s footsteps.

Cheri was a very giving and loving person. She was known for sending greeting cards for every occasion, always with a thoughtful and personal note. She loved a good story, and she had many happy memories to share. She was known for her humor, wit, and comedic nature. There was never a dull moment when she was around. Cheri enjoyed spending time with family, especially her grandsons. Cheri also looked forward to her lunch get-togethers with her lifelong best friends, Kathy and Jane.

Cheri has left us all with happy and beautiful memories.
