Cheryn Kay Lingerfelt

LINGERFELT, CHERYN KAY Age 44, went home to her heavenly father on October 20, 2014, after battling Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Cheryn was born in Albuquerque, NM. She attended West Mesa High School and was a proud member of the West Mesa band. Cheryn attended college at NMSU in Las Cruces, NM as a Crimson Scholar. She graduated with her Master's degree in Accounting and served her internship at Sandia National Laboratory. Cheryn was employed by Sandia for 20 years. In addition to that, she was a member of the Internal Auditing Association which gave her the opportunity to travel extensively. Cheryn's surviving relatives are her father and mother, AC and Joan Lingerfelt of Albuquerque NM; her sister, Karen Trujillo, her husband, Marcos Trujillo, and their three kids, Alexandra 18 and her son, Aaron 2, Abigail 10, and Grace 6; her brother, Andrew Lingerfelt, his wife, Andrea Lingerfelt, and their four kids, Samantha 13, Kiera 8, Sophia 6, and Aycee 4. In 2008, Karen and her three daughters moved in with Cheryn. They lived with her for six years before Cheryn passed. Cheryn became a second mother to Alexandra, Abigail, and Grace, and they became her surrogate children. In 2012, they added to their family when Alexandra had her son Aaron, who also became a surrogate child of Cheryn. Cheryn's family meant the world to her. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you send donations in Cheryn's name to the research of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Services will be held on Friday, October 24, 2014, 5:00 p.m., at FRENCH - Westside. Please visit our online guestbook for Cheryn at . FRENCH - Westside 9300 Golf Course Rd. NW 505-897-0300
