Cindy Busch Obituary

Busch, Cindy 60, of Yorkville joined the Heavenly Father on November 27, 2011. To know Cindy was to love her. Cindy's faith was clearly her strength for any obstacle in life. She was deeply devoted to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and was active member of Cross Lutheran Church and School. She was born on December 13, 1950 in Morrison, IL. The daughter to Bruce and Coretta Van Kooten. Cindy graduated from Morrison High School in 1969 . On April 14, 1972 she married Darrell Busch and spent 30 wonderful years together. They lived in Morrison, Springfield and Yorkville Illinois. The highlights of her life was being a mother to her children and caring for her grandchildren and husband. People always say they had the world's greatest mother, but Cindy truly earned that title through her love and dedication to her family. (no offense, but Cindy was better than your mom, sorry). Cindy was employed with Kendall County Education Coop. Every student and faculty member relied on Cindy to make the day go smoothly. She is survived by her parents, Bruce and Coretta Van Kooten, Morrison, IL. Husband Darrell, Yorkville, siblings, Monte Van Kooten, Sterling, IL. Sar (Dave) Vanderkleed, Lafayette, IN. Lyn (Rod) Damhoff, Morrison, IL. Children Dayne (Erica) Busch, Belvidere, IL. Travis (Aimee) Busch, Anoka, MN. Andy (Brittany) Busch, Loveland, CO. and Katie (Trent) Shumway, Champaign, IL. Grandchildren Caleb, Alivia, Gabrielle, Aiden, Brianne, Felicity, Sydney, Henry and Gwen. She will be missed by countless friends who delighted in her sense of humor, occasional sarcasm and the way her shoulders shook when she laughed. She is preceded in death by her brother Rod Van Kooten. Visitation will be Thursday December 1, 2011 from 4-8 pm at Cross Lutheran Church Yorkville, IL. Funeral service will be Friday December 2, 2011 at 10:00 am at Cross Lutheran Church Yorkville, IL. Family was assisted with the funeral arrangements by the Beverage Family Funeral Home, Sandwich, IL. On line condolences maybe made at www.beveragefamilyfh.com

My deepest sympathy to the entire family and all of the friends. Especially Darrell, Travis, Aimee, Gabby, Sydney, and Henry. Cindy was a beautiful woman inside and out. Always giving to everyone. When my love, Paul (Aimee's brother) was murdered, she had her whole prayer group praying for me. I was extremely touched by her and her groups actions. I do believe it helped in some way. She was our angel here on earth, and now she is our angel in Heaven. I'll will be praying for everyone who is hurting from this, and hopefully it will help them the way she helped me. God Bless.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Although it has been 12 years since I worked with Cindy the memories are as if only yesterday. The genuine outpouring of love that she gave daily can never be forgotten. Without family in the area, she often filled the void of my mother in so many ways. My life has been truly blessed to have known such a beautiful woman of God both inside and out.
