Cheryl A. Llewellyn, 67, of South Jordan, Utah, passed away on December 25, 2023 surrounded by her son Michael and the loving staff of her assisted living facility. Cheryl was born on November 11, 1956, in Castro Valley, CA. She was a caring, hardworking, and fun-loving person who brought light and a smile into every room she entered. Cheryl was known for her helpful nature and positive attitude. She was a fantastic self-sacrificing mother who would do anything for her children.
