Cheryl Denise Newsome
May 2, 1966 - January 15, 2022

On May 2 ^nd , 1966, Willie Frank Newsome and Inez Walker Newsome became the proud parents of Cheryl Denise Newsome. She was lovingly raised along with her siblings in Madison, Florida. Her mother preceded her in death.

Cheryl's lifelong experience of living in Madison included her growing up with her siblings, relatives, and friends. She received her education from the Madison County School District, accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior and became a member of Rocky Springs Missionary Baptist Church. As a young adult, she worked hard to make a home for her children and raised them to not only make her proud, but more importantly, to also love the Lord.

Cheryl was a compassionate person who demonstrated her love for the Lord in her daily life. She knew that to have a friend, she first had to be a friend. She loved to cook and would willingly share her meals with others. Whatever she could do to help a person in need, she did so willingly and with a cheerful heart.  She also had a very positive attitude about life and many things others easily complained about. Being positive gave her reasons to just smile and "smell the roses".

"It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God called you home." On Saturday, January 15, 2022, Cheryl Denise Newsome stood on the promises of Her Heavenly Father and answered His call by peacefully sleeping into eternal rest.

Cheryl's love, life, and legacy will forever be cherished in special memories by her many loved ones who will miss her until they meet again. Among them are her daughters: Toccara (William) McGee of Madison, FL, Dwan Vaughn and Chade Fudge, both of Quitman, GA; father: Willie Frank (Bobbie) Newsome of Quitman, GA; fiancé': David Brinson of Quitman, GA; brother: Gary (Lana) Townsend of Tallahassee, FL; sisters: Wanda (Tony) Spate of Buffalo, NY, and Sabrina Newsome of Texas; nine loving grandchildren: Brittney, Whitney, Cidney, Zahara, Zari, T.J., Ty, Killeen, and Bryston; close friend: Carolyn Jonas of Madison, FL; sister-in-law: Virgel Brinson of Quitman, GA; as well as hosts of other sorrowing relatives and devoted friends.
