Herbert Cheney Jr. entered into rest at Sheep Springs Ranch on July 19, 2018. The ranch was his most favorite place. He was always there during his seasonal job as a cowboy-ranch hand. He was born on July 12, 1965 to the Late Annie White Bond and the Late Herbert Cheney Sr. in Whiteriver, AZ.
Herbert grew up in Upper East Fork, A Wo Shi yeaa~~. He was the only man in the family of five. He attended the East Fork Mission School, Seven Mile Elementary and Alchesay High School up to the 9th grade.
