Black Women Widows Empowered welcomes yet another contributor to BWWE, Cheryl Barnes. Cheryl will be writing from a side of grief that only those grieving can relate to. She's done an amazing comeback after the death of her husband Tony.

Stay tuned for her original material (and even a few recyclables from her personal website) and heart as she unlocks her soul.

About Cheryl:

Cheryl has been with the group since January 2017 and we actually connected through Michelle Miller, a popular blogger, author, and speaker who writes about her husband's unfortunate death by suicide. Cheryl commented on her post in response to my article that was shared on her page and a friendship developed from there.

Cheryl's husband passed August 29, 2014. She has two children, Malcolm, 20 and Miles, 12. Her hobbies are practicing Yoga, reading, visiting the beach, coloring, spending time with her boys, writing and swimming. She is also the admin of the Facebook group, Black and Widowed: A Unique Journey, a private online group for widows and widowers.

Welcome, Cheryl!
