Sheryl Ann (Cook) Blanke

June 27, 1946 - October 23, 2021

Sheryl Blanke, 75, passed away among family at Intermountain Medical Center on October 23, 2021 following a long battle with COPD. Sheryl was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 27, 1946. She graduated from Granite High School and spent her career as a dog groomer. She married Clarke Blanke on January 28,1964 and they were married for 57 years at the time of her passing. Around strangers Sheryl was meek but among those she knew closely she was bold and forthright. Sheryl cherished her children and grandchildren. However, she was adamant about not baby sitting before the grandkids were potty trained. She of course softened and would end up watching her unpotty trained granddaughter, Ashley. When it was time for Ashley to be changed she paid the neighbor to handle it. Not only did Sheryl love her family unconditionally but she also had a soft spot for her animals. There are many dogs that she will be ecstatic to see once again. She was preceded in death by her parents Clyde & Ethel Cook. She is survived by her loving husband Clarke Blanke; 2 children, Corey Blanke and Debbie Blanke-Smith (Greg Hardy); her brother Norman Cook; five grandchildren, Charissa Blanke (Dylan Thompson), Shaynee Jones (Gabe), Cassie Martinez, Ashley Smith, Randy Smith and 11 great grandchildren. Sheryl will be greatly missed and forever loved by all those who knew her. Online condolences may be left for the family at www.premierfuneral.com
