Cindy Prosnak Obituary

Cynthia "Cindy" Dozier Prosnak, 62 of St. James, NC and formerly Harlem, GA, passed away on May 18, 2018 in the hospital near her home in Southport, NC. She succumbed to complications of pneumonia during her battle with breast cancer. Cindy was born October 26, 1955 to William Perry Dozier, Sr. and Jeanne Byington Dozier. She was preceded in death by her father. Cindy was accepted to Emory University at the age of 15 and became a registered nurse, a career that perfectly matched her passion to care for others. She was a Methodist and lived her life exemplifying God's grace and kindness in her every interaction. Cindy was remarkable in her love of reading and art, and was known for her unparalleled creativity. Her trademark was her deep empathy and understanding of other people, and a thoughtfulness beyond comparison. Left to cherish her memory are her husband and best friend of 41 years, Mark Prosnak; her adoring daughter Jenni Bruckman and son-in-law Paul; her devoted brother William "Sport" Dozier, Jr. and sister-in-law Cheryl; her loving mother Jeanne Dozier; and a host more of family and loyal and close friends spread far and wide. A celebration of life service will be held at 3:00 pm on Thursday, May 24, 2018 at Trinity United Methodist Church in Southport, NC: https://www.southporttrinityumc.com/ . In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in Cindy's memory, and her love of animals, may be made to Paws-Ability at http://paws-ability.org/donation/.

She taught us at HHS and was such a gem. I went on to nursing school following my H. S. graduation in 1984.
Several of us became friends with her and we attended her baby shower! I so hate I lost contact with her and I never knew she was so young and attended Emory. What a great inspiration she was to me in H. S. I had no idea she was a Dozier!
