Cheyenne loved West Virginia and all it’s beauty….. camping, fishing, riding motorcycles, mushroom hunting, horses, exploring and adventuring in her beautiful birthplace. She graduated from Buckhannon-Upshur High School in the class of 2014. Cheyenne never met a stranger. She loved everyone and everything, especially animals. Cheyenne adored her little brother.
