On Monday, January 11, 2021, Cherlyn Rose Bird, loving wife, mother, sister, aunt, and grandmother, went to be with her Savior and Lord.
Cherlyn was born on December 13, 1944, in Malad, Idaho, to Verlo Willard Rose and Leah Hess Rose. She spent her childhood in Malad and later graduated from Blackfoot High School.
On June 1, 1963, she married Tom Bird in Blackfoot, Idaho. Cherlyn and Tom established their home together in Idaho Falls where they were blessed with three children: Douglas, Dayna, and Bryan.
