Cheryl was born on February 24, 1956 in Baldwin, WI to parents Clifford and Lila (Aamodt) Schneider. Her childhood years were spent with her 5 other siblings, playing on their family’s dairy farm. She attended Baldwin-Woodville Schools and graduated in 1974.

After graduation, Cheryl began working for 3M. While working full time, she attended night classes at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, graduating with her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Marketing. She held many positions as she advanced her career at 3M, retiring as Customer Data Operations Specialist in December 2020. During her long career, Cheryl won numerous awards, including multiple trips to 3M Wonewok Retreat, which her sisters and friends also benefited from.

She joined the Hudson Lions Club in 1999, where she served as club secretary and district secretary and was recipient of the Birch Sturm Fellowship Award and Melvin Jones Fellowship Award.

Cheryl enjoyed travelling and seeing new places. A few of the places she enjoyed were Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, U.K., and Germany, as well as many cruises. Cheryl went to many weekend craft fairs searching for unique items. She perfected the art of lefse making. Her baking skills were appreciated by many, including her coworkers, who would receive special treats after a Green Bay Packer win.
