Cheryl Bolton

Full obituary to come...

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved wife and Mom, Cheryl Ann Engdahl Bolton. She was born on March 10, 1944 in St. Ignatius, MT to Arthur and Irene Engdahl. She grew up on their family farm outside of Arlee, MT with her three siblings, Carolyn Quinton, Catherine Babbitt, and James Rentfro. Mom passed away on June 3, 2025.

Mom lived a life full of love and laughter. She had a passion for baking, some of her favorites (ours too) were pasties, caramels, povitica, and baklava. She was always on the go - volunteering to help youth organizations in Butte, Toys for Tots, Boy Scouts of America - Vigilante District, BAHA Hockey, Rhythmette’s Drill & Dance, and Mining City Marauders Soccer. When she wasn’t volunteering she had a great time bowling and camping.

She is survived by her husband of 55 years, Ronald Bolton, their children Scott Bolton (Joni and their children Garhett and Gracee), Tabatha Donohoe (John), Tonya Grenz (her son Austyn Grenz (Victoria) and their son Graysen), Stephanie Hewitt (Christopher and their children Makennah and Breanna).

A private ceremony with immediate family will take place in the coming weeks at City Cemetery in Missoula MT.

We will be celebrating her amazing life on July 26, 2025 from 12:00 — 4:00 pm at UNO’s Lounge in Butte. Please join us to share memories and honor her. If you can’t make it please share memories or leave condolences here in the guestbook or on her Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/share/16cfr66opr/?mibextid=wwXIfr .
