Obituary Online notes for Grover Scales (Spouse 2)
Grover Scales Cheek Jr. was born September 4, 1908 in Guilford County, North Carolina to plumber Grover Scales Cheek Sr. and Rosa A. Lilley Cheek.
He was the eldest son and one of five children.
When Grover was six years old, his father and namesake passed away of unknown circumstances at the young age of 27 in 1914. Grover's mother eventually remarried, and the family relocated to Charlotte, NC.
He married Florence Jeanette Hoffman Cheek, and the couple was blessed with a daughter, Mary Lou, who passed away at the age of two in 1931, while they were living in Burlington, NC (Mary Lou is buried in Burlington where there is a marker; there is also a cenotaph in Blandford cemetery in Petersburg, VA).
Grover and Florence eventually moved to Petersburg, Virginia, where he enjoyed a long career as a butcher with his own shop in Petersburg.
Grover passed away from stomach cancer on September 3, 1979. [32287]
