Her family cherishes her memory as a brief gift it was.

Chevelle, known as Love Bug, had a light that shined so bright. She touched the lives of so many with her smile and outgoing personality. She kept everyone in line and watched over her brothers and sisters. She leaves us smiling through our tears and and full of wonderful memories. She was truly an angel on this earth and will forever be in our hearts.
