Cheryl and Charlie Bertero celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary on June 7, 2025.
The couple was married in Austin, Texas, in 1975, and have called it home ever since.
Together, they raised four children and are the proud grandparents of 11 grandchildren. Their life has been defined by loyalty, honesty, hard work, laughter, and unconditional love. They have taught us the importance of loving others, supporting our community, and staying true to who we are. They are always there for those around them, offering a helping hand, an open heart, and a warm home.
Cheryl, retired from a fulfilling teaching career, now spends her time traveling, staying connected with friends, and enjoying meaningful time with family. Charlie, grandson of William D. Welch and Louisa “Polly” Crowder of Crowder Prairie, keeps busy with a variety of work and home projects, always staying active and engaged.
Their loved ones are proud to celebrate this milestone and wish them many more wonderful years together!
“Yakoke, Mom and Dad, for the love you’ve shared and the life you’ve built.” – With love, David, Angela, Lisa and Adora
