Mom was born on May 19, 1943, in Benton, Wisconsin, the daughter of Eugene and Cecelia (Ganahl) Vaughn. She married Charles Cherry on September 29, 1962. They divorced but remained lifelong friends. Mom married John Copeland on March 8, 2007.
You spend years wishing your mom would get off your back only to realize she’s the only one who ever really had your back, and our mom was a great example. Mom loved to love on people in many unselfish ways. Mom lived a full life as a wonderful mother, homemaker and worker in the manufacturing sector at Advance Transformer in Platteville for 25 years and then at Sign Craft in Galena, Illinois. Her hands were rarely still as she busied herself as she served others, setting her own needs aside. Mom prepared the best home cooked meals, raisin pies, angel food cake with inches of cream cheese frosting covering the entire cake. All were created with tireless love. Mom enjoyed kicking her heels up having the time of her life many weekend nights at Hideaway Acres. She enjoyed traveling and when she did she did it with intentional joy. Mom also loved and anticipated her time spent with her only sister, Mary. She also enjoyed many get togethers spent with close friends.
