I went all the way from first grade to graduating in 1975 from GJHS with her. Her mom helped my mom with Girl Scouts in elementary school. I gave piano lessons to Cindy's younger sisters. I am very sad to hear of her passing. The whole family is amazing. Jeanne Gordon AKA Jeanell Jonour

Dear sister, I can´t believe you are gone. I keep trying to find the words, and then I found this poem that says everything:
My Sister, My Friend
by Leann Stiegman
To me, you are an angel in disguise.
Full of intuition, you are intelligent and wise.
Always giving and helping through good times and bad.
You are the best friend I´ve ever had.
If I had one wish, it would surely be
To give you as much as you´ve given to me.
Though I´ve put our relationship through some cloudy days,
You´ve been my sunshine in so many ways.
Through trials and tests, right by me you stood,
And you gave me your hand whenever you could.
Thank you so much, my sister, my friend.
My gratitude for you has no end
