Cynthia Hendrix Obituary

JONESBORO - Cynthia Hendrix, 64, of Jonesboro, entered into a well-deserved eternity of beatitude and rest following a brief illness. She was beloved and respected by family, friends, colleagues and students who were enriched by her nearly three decades of service as a teacher for Nettleton Public Schools.

She was also a passionate dance instructor, working for the Foundation of Arts and founding her own dance company, which served by awarding scholarships to introduce less fortunate students to the arts.

She is survived by her sister, Judith Bennett, and brother, Harrison Bennett, both of Jonesboro.

She will be remembered privately. No public memorial is anticipated.

In lieu of flowers, please contribute to the ASPCA or an animal charity of your choice.

I just found out that beautiful Indy had passed away. Lives her and her kind heart and brilliant light that shines through. I first met Cindy when she was a teen and we went to church together years ago and she taught my granddaughter ballet and was so encouraging to her always. I always have kept flowers out for your parents and will for you too sweet girl. You stand near Jesus now in Heaven. Love you and Cissy
