Uncle Joe, Joey, Kim, Tony, & Eddie, Please know that you have our love, thoughts and prayers always. Cindy was much more to us than an Aunt and Great Aunt. She was like a sister to me. I miss her so much! She always made me laugh and I keep thinking that I should call her. I know that we should all take comfort in knowing that she is now with Grandma, Gram, John, Flo and Butch. I'm sure that Grandma was there just waiting for her with open arms and that they are watching over all of us now. I also take great comfort from the joy and love that Cindy gave to me and my family. She was my Mom's best friend. Just like our parents before us we MUST keep our families together always. Our kids will hopefully have the same kind of relationship that we have had all these years. I'm fortunate to have had the great relationship that I have with all of you. I have posted some family photos on snapfish that I hope you will look at sometime.
I'm sure that you all know how hard this is for me to write because of how close Cindy and I were. I love you all and will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers always.
God bless you all,
Bob

TO KIM...
Your Mother is always with you... She's the whisper
Of the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach
In your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool hand
On your brow when you're not well. Your Mother lives
Inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop.
She's the place you came from, your first home; and
she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love
And your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can
Separate you.
Not time, not space... Not even death!
THINKING OF YOU...
LOVE

My deepest sympathy
I knew Cindy and Butchy and the Reed family many years ago growing up on Bertha Street. Cindy was always so much fun to be with. and had the prettiest eyes and the greatest sense of humor.

A special family was created with "SHD", we shared, laughed and cried as events entered and exited our family life. We all share sadness in Cindy's being called home and joy by being part of her life here.

Kearns Family & Gurske Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathies. I am so sorry for not attempting to contact you in the past. Cindy has been on my mind very much recently because I missed so much having her to talk to from time to time. Although I am unable to participate in saying so long to Cindy, please know that I will be there with you in spirit as I considered Cindy a friend. Take care and know that I am thinking about Cindy and all of you at this time.
Respectfully,
Loretta & Tim Flowers
