Cynthia Kay Ferwerda

It doesn´t seem possible that two years have passed since Cindy passed. She was in my thoughts this past holiday weekend as we prepped our cottage for the end of summer. Knowing her love of her family´s cottage life, she would have been doing the same. It was never a chore for her but a joy to have everyone gather there. Praying she left behind memorable parts of herself so everyone could feel her presence and not her absence.

What a privilege it was to know her, having become friends while at Wheaton College. She´s a beautiful person. I look forward to seeing her again one day.

Dear Dan, Kate, Ben & Zac, I remember the first time I met Cindy at my Dad´s retirement party at Northeast Jr. High. I thought to myself that Dan´s got a good one! Cindy had a way of making you feel so special when you talked to her. Some people go in and out of your lives for months but Cindy always made it about you no matter how many months or years past.

I have sweet memories of Cindy from my years at Berean Baptist, topped off by her singing at our wedding 19 years ago this month. My sincere sympathy and prayer for the Ferwerda family

Dear Dan and Family, It seems like just yesterday that I was in Cindy´s presence. I now look back fondly to think that it was a present/ gift to me to have spent time with her and to have journeyed with her when I did. We had so many wonderful conversations about life in general and our cherished time with family. For her, it was always being up north at the cottage. She took each day´s health challenges in stride and found comfort in believing that "this too will pass, sustained by her...

Dear Dan and family I just learned of Cindy's passing. Tonight she is singing up in Heaven! I pray our Heavenly Father will comfort you with His abiding love and peace.

Dan, Ben, Kate, and Zach, we were stunned to hear today of Cindy´s home going and are so sorry for your great loss! So many memories emerge of fun days raising our kids together on Meadowfield. Prayers for the peace and comfort that only Jesus can bring to flood your hearts in the coming days. Love in Him, Chuck and Betsy

Dear Dan, My heart hurts for your and your family, what a huge loss to all of you. May all of you know the peace, comfort and strength of our God in the days to come. May God bless with you moments of joy recalling happy memories as you walk this path of sorrow. I will be praying for all of you,
