It saddened me to see that Cindy had passed. She was a great example to many women of what hard work, determination and compassion could provide for you in life. She was a strong and benevolent leader and will be sorely missed. (I am a former Comcast employee that worked directly under her)

Cindy was a wonderful mentor, leader and friend to many she worked with. I will always treasure the many times she spent just talking about family and those things that were important to her. Her smile and kind spirit will be deeply missed. She is one of kind and her memory will live on through all of us who loved her. Thank you for sharing your wife and mother with us. I am so proud to have known her and to have worked with her.

Miss Cindy =)
This is what I would call you, then you'd smile back at me and say Miss Quesha...what can I do for you. You'd remind me to find balance when I would see you because we'd both giggle at how busy we each were all the time at work. I'd always tell you in the 19 years working at Viacom/TCI/AT&T/Comcast...I wondered how you never aged...you'd just laugh and say Miss Quesha...I don't think you ever age either.I can still see you in your office...you'd smile at me as I walked by. I don't have to tell you how many lives you've touched...in so many different places. Well I walked by your office the other day...your door was open and the only thing in your chair was the sun shining through the blinds...you were there, and we miss you. We are thinking of you still, and sending strength to your family. We'll watch over everything for you and stay #1 in Seattle...we know this is what you'd want.
