Cheryl Ann Bragg
August 17, 1954 - September 14, 2025
AUBURN– Cheryl A. Bragg, 71, passed away peacefully Sunday morning, September 14, 2025, in Saint Vincent Hospital. She was born August 17, 1954, in Worcester, a treasured daughter of the late Edward and Marion Bragg.
Cheryl is survived and greatly missed by her son and daughter-in-law, Edward and Nicole Bragg of West Boylston, and forever cherished by her three grandchildren, Chloe, Jonathan, and Avery; three siblings, David Bragg of Auburn, James Bragg of Worcester, Mina Blair of Old Town, ME, and nieces and nephews. She joins her brother, Phillip Bragg of Penobscot, ME, in eternal rest.
Cheryl graduated from South High School in 1972. She was a well-known and loved unit secretary and administrative assistant at UMASS Hospital University campus for 40 years, retiring in 2017.
She enjoyed all things crafting, baking, long drives, jamming out to the Allman Brothers, and spending time with her beloved grandchildren. She will be remembered for her kindness and giving nature, always crafting beautiful handmade chocolates and gifts for her friends and family. She had deep admiration for lighthouses, with Peggy’s Cove holding a special place in her heart.
In lieu of flowers, we are encouraging friends and loved ones to donate to the American Kidney Fund in her name.
Services will be private with her immediate family. Cheryl will be laid to rest in Rural Cemetery, Worcester.
