    Mattie Ruth Cherry

    October 27, 1925 - September 9, 2017

    Ms. Mattie Cherry (91) entered into eternal rest on September 9, 2017 at her home in Aulander, NC. She was the daughter of the late Wheeler and Ludie Ann Lee and the widow of Joseph Cherry. Ms. Cherry received her education from the Bertie County Public Schools. Her work career consisted of working as a nurses aide with Bertie Memorial Hospital, Roanoke Chowan Hospital and later as a private duty nurse. Mt Herman Missionary Baptist church is where Ms. Cherry received her spiritual growth. She worked for The Lord as a deaconess and choir member, until her health failed and was "The Mother" of the church. "Mattie Ruth" as she was affectionately called by those who knew her, loved to bake; specializing in homemade cakes, pies and her grand children's favorite cornbread. Although "Mattie Ruth" never drove a automobile, it can be said "she sure got around". She loved traveling, with several trips to world fairs being memorable. Left to cherish fond memories are one daughter, Josephine McGlohon; five grand children; a host of great grandchildren, great great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
