had a love for plants, something she carried with her from her childhood where she would spend hours in the garden with her sister on the farm. She also loved sports, especially basketball and football, and of course, the Iowa Hawkeyes. Cherry adored her grandchildren and was happiest when she had them wrapped up in her arms. Cherry is survived by her two sons, Eric (Brittany), of Henderson, Nevada, and Ian, of West Des Moines, as well as by four grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister Connie Schmett (Kim), and her brother Chris Bishop (Janet). She is preceded in death by her parents Clyde and Betty Bishop, both of Runnells, Iowa.
