Cynthia Robson Pomeroy

Ms. (Peterson) Pomery was my kindergarten teacher, at the K-12 school Maret. She was the teacher a child will remember forever (I do) and that a parent could only dream of having for their child. I can't imagine a better way to have started my own educational journey than in her kindergarten cottage. Her warmth, kindness, laughter and joy of stories - the reading, writing and telling was an inspiration to so many students. And the pleasure of being at a K-12 school is that as I grew up I...

Just one of the many, many students from Maret that were blessed to have shared a world with, and began expanding and enriching our worlds through her joyous heart and captivating ways of helping us connect to the world around us, as well as each other. The annual chorus from across the parking lot of 'Misssssssus Petersooooooooon' was a daily thing. We would not budge until we saw her wave that it was ok to run, with her ever welcoming smile calling us back to our home on campus. She...

Ms. Peterson (as she then was) was my kindergarten teacher at Maret almost forty years ago. I feel so lucky to have had her; I cannot imagine a better kindergarten teacher. She was warm, wise, imaginative (eg hundreds boards), and outstanding at providing kids with strong educational fundamentals. I remember her story-telling to this day. It isn't nostalgia when a teacher really was that wonderful. My condolences to her family and friends.

I met Cindy at Dumbarton United Methodist Church in Washington and we worshipped together for over 2 decades. I loved being with her, laughing with her, learning from her and listening to her amazing storytelling. No one forgets Cindy, she has left an indelible mark in all she met, a mark full of acceptance, kindness and a gleaming smile. May you rest peacefully, dear Cindy.

Cindy was always gracious and gifted. Inspired by her unshakable faith she was the first to volunteer for projects that uplifted us all. One always felt nourished when in her presence. Her love for family and friends defined her. I feel blessed to have known her.

Cindy was one of the most amazing people I have ever met. It was a privilege to know her and be her friend. Greg and I enjoyed visiting her in Greenfield. Pam Thielmann.

We had the privilege of living next door to Cindy on Madison Circle from 2017-2021. We could not have asked for a better neighbor. I always knew it would be a good day, if I happened to come out onto the porch while Cindy was rocking on hers. She was always willing to take the time to share a story, a laugh, and the blueberries that grew in the patch between our houses. We also enjoyed playing with and scritching the ears of her sweet pup, Milo, even if he wasn´t always fan of our dogs. Cindy...

I am so glad to have gotten to know Cindy, even if only for a few short years. I'll remember her sparkle and wit, and her deep wisdom about life.

For someone I've know all my life, I'm not sure how to start. For most of my life, I knew Cindy as a nephew knows his aunt. She was always fun to be with and a bit more to the wild side than my mother or my other aunt (her sisters). Storytelling and an out of the ordinary perspective are things I really remember. I think the more important part of my relationship with Cindy was the last 10 years or so of her life and the last five years or so of the lives of my parents. Cindy was huge...
