Cindy Deuel Obituary - Death Notice and Service Information

LOCATION

Brooklyn, New York

Tracing the Line
For more than two years, Cindy Deuel had been trying to map the Deuel family line back to 16th- century England. Using the New York Public Library, the National Archives, the Internet and her brother Richard's similar passion for genealogy, she had made a few important discoveries, including great- great grandfather Henry Deuel's unmarked grave at Cedar Lawn Cemetery in Paterson, N.J.

"It is in this location that we have chosen to erect a headstone for Cindy, whether or not we find the body," said Richard Deuel, 31. "On the headstone we are going to depict Cindy's family tree, much of it information that Cindy learned through her research."

Ms. Deuel, 28, who lived in Brooklyn with her husband, Tomas Pons, worked as an executive assistant at Carr Futures on the 92nd floor of 1 World Trade Center. But Mr. Deuel, who has another brother, Joseph, 37, said his sister dreamed of starting a genealogy business to help people with their own family research. It was fitting of someone who, he said, helped friends with everything, including their taxes. "I don't know anyone who knows Cindy that hasn't consulted her," Mr. Deuel said.

Almost 21 years later and I am sure the ache of Cindy's absence is still there. My mom was Mary Deuel Plummer and I have just learned that her grandmother was Elizabeth Taggart Deuel. Like Cindy, I am very much interested in genealogy. Both my first cousin in TX and I are working on this family, so in a way we are carrying on some of Cindy's work. If any of the family would like to contact me, please do. May Cindy rest in peace.

Thinking of you today Cindy. I will light a candle and observe a moment of silence in your honor today, just as I have for the past 15 years, on this day and as well as, on our shared birthday.
Miss you, Sue

This is a message for sally deuel,who is looking for my song Life/Cindys'Song. Google soundcloud, look up Kenni Laine and you'll find the song. I lived with her father Joe for a while, and that's where and when the song was written for Cindy. Any questions you can reach me at 267-615-9984 or 484-369-9515. good luck Sally.

Rest In Peace Cindy.
Angels Prayers to all her family members

(December 4,2015 - I had ran across this while doing some more research of my last name and everything that I had found up to this point is really interesting - just maybe we are still distant cousins)

I visited Cindy's memorial in Cedar Lawn Cemetery today. I do often. My husband's grave is nearby. I will place a Christmas decoration in her honor in December. Peace be with her family and friends.

Hi, my name is Ken DeFreitas who was friends with Cindy's father Joe. I was living with Joe at the time of 9/11. I am a singer songwriter and have just released a song that I wrote for Cindy and the effect I saw it had on Joe, her dad. You can find it on soundcloud, under Kenni Laine, and the songs are titled; Life/Cindy's Song. I own the copyright and give you permission to use the song if you wish to.
