I had the pleasure of meeting Cindy when I wqs her homecare nurse many years ago. She was such a delight to visit. After I retired we kept contact at Christmas and an occassional phone call. I will always remember her. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

To Mr Roy , Keith , Brian and their respective family members relatives and friends. Our condolences to you all during this difficult time I went to school with both boys and had the pleasure of knowing Cindy at a young age a team mom to us all and along with her husband an unwavering supporter of both her sons and every athlete on the Canton Sports Roster . She was quite simply her own and first booster club if you ask me or any one who crossed her path back then Always a positive attitude when it came to the kids and we were all her kids. She was a wonderful Lady and a fixture in Canton sports God bless her.
