CHERIE’ RENEE FOLAND

Cherie’ Renee Foland left this earth on December 23, 2021 to be with the angels. She is now free from pain and at peace after battling cancer for over 10 years. She was a fighter until the end, but no stranger to challenges throughout her life. Cherie’ came into this world six weeks early on October 10, 1969 at the Clarke County Hospital, born to parents, Harold Foland and Linda (Virden) Foland.
She started grade school at Weldon Elementary, where Linda taught, before joining Grand Valley in the fifth grade and graduating with the Grand Valley class of 1988. After high school, Cherie’ attended and graduated from Central College and AIB. As part of her major in Spanish, she completed studies in Mexico on the Yucatan Peninsula and in Grenada, Spain and loved to share stories about her time there.
Following her college graduation, she worked for a period of time in Longmont, CO before returning to Iowa where she worked for Allied and Nationwide Insurance in Des Moines and then helped keep the books at her dad’s tire shop, T&H Tires. Cherie’ loved animals, named all the family blue heelers and enjoyed taking care of the bottle calves each year.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Roy and Gertrude Foland and Francis and Fornola Virden, aunts and uncles, Stephanie Beck, Sandy Campbell, Larry Campbell and Glen Foland. She is survived by her parents, Harold and Linda Foland, her sister, Stacey Foland, and her husband, Neil Noble, aunts and uncles, Janet Foland, Kendall Foland, Vicki and Vince Jackson, Mitzi and Gaylen Tann and Doug Virden, and many cousins.
