Cheri Head
Funeral Arranger/Funeral Operative
Cheri has lived in the Wokingham area all her life. She has always had a passion for caring, and after bringing up her family, went to work in local homes, becoming Care Team Leader at a large care home in Wokingham. Having cared for people until the end of their lives, however, she decided that she wanted to work in the funeral industry, and we were delighted when she joined Richard Lloyd Funeral Services in 2016, on the retirement of Angie Southern. Cheri lives in Barkham with her children and enjoys spending time with her family.
