My deepest sympathy to you. I have wonderful memories of Cindy as we grew up. She was an incredibly genuine, caring, bright, and funny girl. She helped me through many difficult times. She contributed to the world in such a positive way and I regret not having kept in touch.

Dear Soroos family, I just learned about Cynthia's passing today through Boston Patent Law Association's news letter. My heart goes out to you at this time of sorrow. Cynthia was a classmate of mine at law school and just a few weeks ago she visited the firm I work with, Nixon Peabody, to attend a Women Attorney's lunch meeting. She was a lovely and brilliant woman. I can only offer my deepest condolences.

Dear Soroos Family--

I was so sorry to hear of Cynthia's passing...I ran into her a few years back in Downtown Crossing here in Boston-she had just finished law school and was thrilled with her new career. She remembered so many details from our Wellesley days together-although we did know each other well-I was so taken by her thoughtfulness.

My deepest sympathy for your loss,
Alicia Talanian
