Pandora Bray

September 25, 1952 — June 3, 2024

Cheryl Pandora Bray, 71, went home to be with Jesus on June 3, 2024. After an accidental fall and awaiting a surgery to repair a broken neck, she took off her earthly body to go to heaven. She left this world with a soft smile on her face. Pandora was born September 25, 1952 in Mena, Arkansas to John and Patricia (Richmond) Frost.

Pandora married the love of her life, James, June 5, 1970. They lived a fun filled 50 years together until his death in 2020. Pandora worked as a secretary where she made lifelong friends and retired from North Little Rock School District in 2015.

Pandora enjoyed spending time with her friends and loved her family with every ounce of her being. She loved playing board games and card games and just sitting around talking and laughing. She enjoyed going out to eat, going on road trips, and traveling with her North Little Rock School District colleagues and friends on cruises. She loved buying pretty things to decorate her house and took lots of pride in making her home be the most warm and welcoming to anyone who wanted to stop by for a visit. She was a member of Brockington Road Church of the Nazarene and enjoyed her Sunday school classes and Sunday sermons immensely.

Pandora's exuberance for life and genuine kindness touched all who crossed her path, leaving a lasting impact on each soul she encountered. Survived by her beloved son Corey Bray, daughter-in-law Sasha Bray;  cherished granddaughter Mahalia Bray, and loving sister Rita Winn and brother-in-law Darron Winn. Pandora will be missed by all that knew her, including an extended family of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and many friends. Her memory will forever be treasured by those who knew her.

Pandora was preceded in death by her husband James Bray and her parents John and Patricia Frost.
