Chyrl Ann Edwards Deal

Chyrl Ann Edwards Deal 69, of Newton, North Carolina, passed away on January 1, 2026, in her hometown of Newton.

Born on April 26, 1956, in Newton, Chyrl was the daughter of the late Charles and Barbra Edwards. She remained deeply rooted in her community throughout her life and was known for her unwavering faith and gentle spirit. A devoted Christian, she attended King’s Way Baptist Church, where she found strength and fellowship.

Chyrl shared a loving marriage with her husband of 37 years Verlie Deal. Together they built a life centered around family and faith. She was a nurturing presence to those around her—kind-hearted, sweet, and caring in all that she did.

She is lovingly remembered by her children: daughter Charity Sigmon and son-in-law Jason Ledford; son Ronald Sigmon; and daughter Verlina Hoke and son-in-law Walter Hoke. Her legacy continues through her grandchildren: Amber Skeens, Abigail Hoke, Valerie Deal, Braxton Ledford, Hunter Hoke, and Jay Ledford; as well as great-granddaughters Maeva Betancourt, Vyla Betancourt, and Paisley Gallimore.

Chyrl is also survived by her sisters, Sandy Forbis and Martha Smith, and her brothers, Tommy Edwards and Leroy Edwards.

She found joy in the simple pleasures of life—gardening brought her peace and fulfillment, while time spent with family filled her heart with happiness. Her home was a place of warmth where love bloomed as abundantly as the flowers she tended.

May Chyrl Ann Deal’s memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved her.
