Cynthia Rork Obituary
Cynthia was a devoted foster mom, a retired hair stylist, and an ardent animal lover. Her nurturing spirit and love for children touched many lives.

She is survived by her two sons, Colin Rork and John Rork, and her daughter, Brittney Rork, all of Memphis, Tennessee. She also leaves behind her life partner, Co Walker, and three cherished grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the Memphis Shelby County Humane Society.
Cynthia's legacy of love and care will be remembered by all who knew her.
