With heavy hearts and deep sorrow, we announce the passing of Cheryln Deanna Kincaid, who left this world on August 2, 2025, at the age of 47.

Cheryln’s life was a radiant testament to courage, resilience, and joy. Born with spina bifida, she faced many challenges yet never allowed them to dim her sparkle. She met each obstacle with grace, humor, and an unshakable spirit. Her positivity, faith in God, and outlook on life were a constant source of inspiration to everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

Whether through her numerous colorings, perfectly timed jokes, constant reruns of the "Cops" TV show, or her love of Disney, butterflies, and country music, Cheryln reminded us to always appreciate life's blessings. Her enthusiasm and zest for life were contagious, bringing smiles to all who crossed her path.

To her family, Cheryln was a shining beacon of love and positivity. Her presence brought warmth and light, serving as a constant reminder that a positive heart can illuminate even the darkest times. She leaves behind her brother, Scott Kincaid; her sister-in-law, Sarah Kincaid; her beloved niece, Lily; and her cherished nephew, Evan. Cheryln is also lovingly remembered by her special cousins, Nikki Kincaid Dove and Jessica Kincaid; her uncle John and aunt Pauline Kincaid; and the families of Renee and Alan Coffey, Greg and Linda Scott, and Paul and Tammy Scott. Her memory will live on in the hearts of numerous other cousins and loved ones, who will forever carry her strength and faith with them.

Though her earthly journey has ended, we find solace in knowing Cheryln is now free, whole, and rejoicing in heaven. I imagine her meeting our Father, David Elmer Kincaid, and our Mother, Cheryle Lynn Kincaid, at the pearly gates. Together, they are dancing, laughing, and watching over us with that same radiant smile that will forever be etched in our memories.

Cheryln will be deeply missed and forever cherished.

Services will be at 1:00 PM, Monday, August 11, 2025, at High Lawn Memorial Park.
