Cynthia Marie Reich
August 29, 1969 - December 3, 2025
Cynthia Marie Reich, age 56, passed away peacefully on December 3, 2025, with her devoted husband by her side. Born on August 29, 1969, in Manteca, California, Cynthia was a lifelong resident whose life was deeply rooted in family, faith, service, and compassion.
Cynthia was the heart of her family. She was a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a proud grandmother to six grandchildren whom she loved more than life itself. Her love was steady and unconditional, expressed through her laughter, her playful spirit, and the way she made everyone around her feel seen, valued, and cared for.
As a single mother, Cynthia worked tirelessly to build a better life for her family. Through determination and perseverance, she put herself through college and earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Grand Canyon University. Nursing was more than a profession to her—it was a calling. She cared for her patients with empathy, patience, and a quiet strength that reflected who she was at her core.
Cynthia was deeply involved in her church community at St. Paul's Methodist Church, where her faith guided her life and her kindness touched many. She lived with humility, integrity, and a heart always willing to serve others.
Above all, Cynthia will be remembered for her warmth, her beautiful smile, and the love she gave so freely. Her absence leaves an immeasurable void, but her spirit and the legacy of love she built will live on in all who were blessed to know her.
A memorial service will be held at 1:00 PM on February 21, 2026, at St. Paul's Methodist Church, 910 E North Street, Manteca.
The family request that memorials be made to St. Paul's UMC. www.stpaulsmanteca-ca.orgj
