Hi Cindy,
Its your birthday, I wish you were here to talk to. I really need your advice. My mind is rumbling with the thoughts of what you might tell me. If I close my eyes and listen closely maybe you will give me the answers I need. For now I will continue down the road I have chosen.
Miss you and love you always.
Your brother Jeff

The poem I wrote and read at Cindy's Memorial.

For My Wonderful Sister,
Why does life go the way it goes,
Why do we take the paths we take,
for many years we grew together,
Then many more years we grew apart,
But finally together again, only to be ripped apart,
You were special, so very special,
You were there when I needed you most,
Now you are gone and my life will be void of that special friend,
The one I was always proud to call my Sister Cindy.

Dear Cindy,
You will be missed by many including me. Though we were never that close, family has incredible bonds that are strong yet unspoken. I really enjoyed seeing you at Dad's 75th birthday dinner. It was so great to see you smile and get to talk to Chad that night. I know that you were thrilled that he could be there as well. On behalf of Dad, Linda (because they are not online) and myself..we will miss you and love you always. We know that you have found peace and I keep hearing the pastors words "on the day you were born you cried and the world rejoiced". Now we cry and as you rejoice.
Love you,
Gina

Clark family:

I am so sorry for your loss. Cindy was a great friend to me when I stayed with her in Mesa for 6 months, and afterward. I will never forget her happy go lucky personality and the fun we had. I hope you all find peace and know that she is with God now. God bless you all.

Dear Aunt Ileen and Uncle Jim and all who loved Cindy

I am praying for you all and have been praying! I am asking God to comfort you and strengthen you. Lean on all your happy memories of times with Cindy and this will help you through the roughest times. Remember too that she is not gone she is waiting for you and she is healthy and happy with the Lord.

I am sure that she and my mom, Aunt Freda, have been trading stories and getting caught up on everything. God's Word assures us that we will see and know each other in heaven. We all have much to look forward to with so many of our treasured family members already with the Lord. What a happy day it will be when the circle is unbroken. God is so good that even in the midst of sadness he assures us of a coming day with all our loved ones and himself!

Cindy's love for all of us and our love for her will keep Cindy alive in all our hearts and in our world as we continue to love and help each other while we are still here on earth.

I love you all. Linda

Cindy, I know you are with some very special angel's now. Your pain is no longer there. You will be missed dearly. I'll never forget your smile and the great times we had at the Cub's spring training. Win or lose it was a great day. I wish I could have spent more time with you but you were alway's so kind and loving even with my situation. I know you'll be keeping an eye on us here on earth. ( You think you might do some about these Cubbie's?) LOL. My prayer's are with you and your family. Someday we will see you again. Love alway's Lynn

To my dear Sister,
I will miss you so very much. I really wish I could have been there to help you through those final days. You were there for me when I lost Tracie. You are with her and Gene now. I will never forget the smile on your face in Mexico when you reeled in that big fish or when we went to the casino just 5 weeks ago and you hit that jackpot, though it was a small one. I am glad I stayed at your house that week and helped you where I could.
I will miss you and you will always be in my heart.
Your Brother,
Craig (Jeff)
