  Obituary- Mahan, Cherry Cherry Lynne' Mahan Cherry Lynne' Mahan It is with deep sorrow we announce the passing of Cherry (64) on Tuesday January 28th. She passed away at her home in Rossville from natural causes after a brief illness. Cherry was born in Paola, Kansas to Dale Paul and Louzetta Isabelle (Moore) Mahan, both deceased. Shortly after she was born, the family moved to Topeka and then to Rossville in 1966. Cherry attended and graduated from Rossville Public Schools. She made her home in the Rossville and St. Mary’s communities. Cherry had a long career in the commercial insurance industry, retiring in 2022 from Brier Payne Meade Insurance in Topeka. Cherry was an avid reader, loved traveling and loved hanging out with family and friends and just “taking it easy”. Cherry is preceded in death by her parents, Dale & Lou Mahan. Surviving, brother Robin, wife Sheri of Manhattan, nephew Logan Mahan, Tempe, Arizona, niece Matalyn Mahan-Wilson, husband Chandlor, Denver, Colorado. Aunts, Cherry (Moore) Collins, Maple Hill, Marcia (Moore) Collins, Harveyville, Dorothy (Mahan) Myers, Neosho Rapids. Stepchildren, Josh DeVader and family, Maple Hill, Jesica Devader-Hodges and family, Wichita. And many cousins. Cherry loved her longtime friends, gathering on sunny days at ponds, lakes and backyards. She loved anywhere fun could be had and loved listening to some pickin’ n grinnin’ music played by amazingly talented friends. Nearest and dearest to her heart were friends, Trina Perry, Traci Homan, Cindy Langworthy and Steve Homan. A Celebration of Life (party) will be held in her honor, at a later date. Memorial contributions may be made in Cherry’s memory to the Stormont-Vail Foundation designated to the Behavioral Health Center and can be sent in care of Piper Funeral Home, 714 Maple Street, St. Marys, KS 66536.
