So sad to hear of cindys passing. May you be consoled by the faith she exhibited to all. I worked as a pediatric nurse at adena and was impressed by her honesty, sincerity, willingness to help others and kindness. My daughter was a volunteer at adena, she died in 1999 and they recognized her as a fallen star. So rest well Cindy, you are still a brilliant star

We only knew each other for a short time when I was a volunteer in the stats department at Adena, but Cindy was a sweet lady who treated everyone with respect. She always had such a lovely smile, too- the obituary picture is a perfect example. That smile will be missed by many.

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel at Cindy's passing. I worked with her at Adena several years ago. She was, without a doubt, the nicest, sweetest, kindest person I have ever had the pleasure to know and work with. She always had a smile no matter how bad the situation was. Rest in Peace dear Cindy.

I was so sad to hear. I knew Cindy when I was just a teenage in a Bible study and she was there as an adult. She was such a special person. Always willing to listen to us kids. Even though I haven't seen her in a long time, I will miss her. The world is a lesser place without her in it.

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. 6Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7(For we walk by faith, not by sight:) 8We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 9Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
Know that the family are all in my prayers. Cindy was a classmate that will not be forgotten.

Feeling so sad that Cindy has left us now. I'll always remember her from the many years that we shared together in the Lord's Work. She was loved by so many people who knew her. She was an awesome cook and loved catering for some of our Brookside Church functions with the ladies. Cindy is now out of her suffering and is a Peace with her Lord and Savior. Somewhere in Heaven there is rejoicing with all of the Brookside Church family , her family and friends that greeted her on Sat. You are missed.
