Cheston was raised in Douglas by his parents, Donald and Linda, and graduated from Douglas High School in 1998. Cheston worked a short time as an oilfield roustabout and on pipeline construction, but his heart was always in ranching. He worked on several ranches in Converse County, most recently for Jim Werner (Werner Ranches) at Lance Creek. Ranching was more than a job, but a way of life for Cheston; he was a true cowboy.
