A close personal friend with whom so many wonderful memories were shared together. Cindy never met a stranger and had a wonderful caring heart for all. You and all your relatives always treated me like a member of your family. We must have communicated a thousand times during your battle with cancer as well. You are etched in my mind forever.
God Bless.

I really am grateful I was alive the same time as you and that God allowed me to cross paths with yours. You left the biggest and greatest first impression with me the first time I met you one day when i was with my best friend Crystal over 20 years ago and that first impression never dissipated . She and I both looked up to u for being the strong independent woman with the most inspiring go getter mentality whose light shines so undeniably bright. My heart is heavy for your sweet family and loved ones and I will keep them in my prayers for certain. Hug Crystal real big for me when u see her in the afterlife &u guys save me seat. Rest In Peace Eternally Cindy. You will always be an icon to so many!
