We only spent a short time together, but it was enough for me to recognise that you were one of the coolest and most fun mums I have ever met. You have achieved plenty to be proud of and have passed down all of your beauty and fun to your daughter who I will love always. I'm so sorry I was not there for you at the end!! Rest in peace and know you are in my thoughts x

Kurt, very sorry to hear of you losing your sister. It sounds like she was a wonderful mother and sister. We were friends in HS and I know your sister a little.

You will always remember the good times and time will heal the pain.

take care

Cindy had such a zest for life. She loved her daughter most of all and was so proud of Kelly. She loved her garden, her cats, and great blues music. She will be missed. Rest in peace dear Cindy.

Oh My Sad Heart, how can I hold on to such a truly Great big Sister? The Memories go so far back, and so many of them are sweet recollections. Her dynamics and emotions, her caring and loving, her smile and laugh. All helped shaped the world I learned to live in, from a small boy to the man that I am today. I will miss the closeness we shared, I will just miss her.
I always thought you would be here, Cindy, I know we will always be together in Spirit. I will think of you often and with much Love in my sad Heart

There are no real words that can express the sorrow of losing someone that was so special to her family. I want to thank Cynthia's family for letting me share in her beautiful memorial service. It was very obvious how much she was loved. I am happy that I was able to get to know her as a friend. I will always remember her smile (she really could light up a room) and her great laugh!! She was truly beautiful inside and out and I will really miss her. My deepest condolences to her family, and I pray that in time the pain will lessen and her memory will keep shining through.

You were a beautiful rose in the garden, the early morning birds songs, the sun's shining ray of light on the water, the fresh fragrance of a rain shower... you will be forever in my heart. I will miss your great laugh and sense of humor. Rest in peace, my dear sister. I love you. xo

I'll always remember my mother's smile and the way she threw her head back when that beautiful laugh came out...butterfly kisses with our eyelashes when I was a little girl, making funny faces in the mirror, animal drawings on my school lunch bag, handwritten letters on colourful paper and stickers, her elegance and style, encouraging me and allowing me to live my own life although she missed me terribly. There will always be an enormous hole in my heart for the rest of my life, but I will remember her with a smile and be thankful for the 40 years we had together and feel comfort that she's now at peace. I love you.
