Growing up, Cheyenne was raised most of her life by her uncle Henry “Sonny” Rushman.  She attended school at the Bug-O-Nay-Ge-Shig School and loved to play basketball and dance.  After school, she worked as a Security Guard at the Northern Lights Casino and at Evergreen in Cass Lake during bough season.

Cheyenne loved all her kids, family and friends down to the bottom of her soul.  She was spiritually gifted to help people and very optimistic; she always tried to make good of a bad situation and would give the shirt off her back to anyone in need.  Cheyenne loved to eat at any Chinese and Mexican restaurants.  She was always smiling with her smile that lit up any room and would made jokes just to make someone laugh.  Cheyenne’s laugh could be heard long before she could be seen.
