Cynthia Jean Desmond

Cynthia I miss your smile and wonderful discussions of your diverse background and insight. You will be missed by so many friends! Rest In Peace

My dear friend of 40 years is gone, gone are those anytime telephone calls back and forth for information on any subject and the true friendship of half my life. Cynthia, people who knew you miss you.

Dr. Desmond: I enjoyed talking with you back in the 70s when I worked for The Eagle. Thank you for the glowing letter of recommendation you wrote for me when I left B/CS. Rest in peace!

I am so sorry to learn that the world has lost you, Cynthia. This greatly saddens me.

a brilliant, gorgeous, ecccentric free thinker. I loved her! She always reassurred people that their thinking was as valid as anyone elses about anything. She had a rough last several years. To know her when she was healthy was to know a true and loving woman who encouraged people to be themselves no matter whay anyone else thought. She also had a GREAT sense of humor. She was a quiet, strong leader.I miss her.

Rest in Peace

Dearest Cynthia - I am so sorry we lost track of each other. You were my dearest friend for many years. I will miss you terribly. I was shocked today when I saw your memorial in the Eagle. Our community has lost such a valuable resource. Thank you for all you did for each of us.
