I think I met Cindy in 1993 when we worked at Taco Bell ,together .We became friends instantly,she was such a funny person,she started selling Party Lite with me, and I will always remember haveing to stop at WaWA to get chocolate milk for her.Time passed and we lost touch w/ each other.however we ran into each other at schools open house.every year at middle elem #1.And always said "we were gonna get in touch" and for some reason or another never were able to.( dont' ever let time come between friends cause this is when you relize that you don't what you have till it's gone) I learned about Cindy's passing just on Monday,Sept 22nd when I ran into her daughter at Arby's,and I said to her,is your Mom's name Cindy?She said Yes,and then she told me the horrible news,I felt such a bad feeling in my stomach and I felt my eyes starting to swell,I did cry on my way back to work.She will never be forgotten .. "Love ya,Cindy"

Cindi gave me a beautiful son and I will treasure her for that always. I will make sure he grows to be a fine and worthy young man and I will never let Zachary forget how much his mommy loved him. Zachary and I will keep her memory cherished in our hearts forever. I know that you will be guiding me from above.

Love always,

Tom.

Until that day I'll think of you,
the love we shared, the memories too.

Until that day I'll think of you,
I'll try so hard in all I do.

Until that day I'll find out why,
you had to leave with no "goodbye".

Until that day this is so,
your family misses you, more than you'll know.

Until that day You'll be with him,
your God, your Savior, and new best friend.

Until that day I see you there,
you're in my heart, you're everywhere.

Until that day.

I love You Aunt Cindi!

Cindi was'nt a quitter. She fought to the very end, and even then she was worried about everyone else.
If anyone deserves to be in a wonderful place, it is Cindi.
I love you Girly Girl. I am so proud of you.
Love,
Aunt Myrn

I've known Cindi for many years and I am very sad that she is no longer with us. My heart goes out to her entire family and I hope you find comfort knowing that she is with the Lord above and also with her father, cousin Albert and other family members now. Cindi was always alot of fun, and was always there as a friend when you needed one. No words can express how much she will be missed, she was a terriffic person and I will never forget her.

Sincerely,

Chrissy

Cindi will always be remembered for her huge smile that she always wore. I'll always remember her as the "Silver Dollar" which was when we first met over 10 yrs ago. Memories of BBQ's, horseshoes, and LOUD singing will bring smiles to many!! Crazy, fun times at the bank will be remembered forever....and so will Cindi. She put up a great fight & she will be missed by all of those who knew her.

I will always remember the fun trips back and further from school in her brown and tan chevy chevette. Always had such a beatiful smile on her face and knew all the words and sang her heart out to all the cool tunes. Always and forever be in my heart
