Thinking about Cindy, an old-fashioned phrase came to mind, "salt of the earth". To me, it connoted her being good, open, honest, kind, and unpretentious or preoccupied with herself-- qualities which are rare in people today.
After I looked it up, I found that it was a Biblical phrase, and had many connotations that describe Cindy's religiousity, but the one that resonated with me were: "embodying simplicity and moral integrity"; "bringing joy to people"; and being a person "who deals with difficult or demanding situations without making a fuss".
Cindy died as she lived, with honesty, and with concern for those around her. Most remarkable was her seemingly unwavering courage to accept her destiny with grace, and even to anticipate it with joy.
These things cannot be said about many people. Cindy was loved and admired by everyone who knew her. We miss her kind and gentle spirit, especially when it was punctuated by humor and raucousness!

Cindy was a wonderful friend whom I met in sixth grade. She was kind, generous and truly caring. My heartfelt condolences to her family. She will be missed. Godspeed, Cindy.
