Cindy Epley, 68, of Morganton, NC, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Tuesday, February 24, 2026 after a courageous battle with cancer.

Born in Hertford County, NC, on May 18, 1957, she was the daughter of Marvin and Sarah Lovins.

Her career as a pharmacist consisted of working at Broughton Hospital and Jones Drug, but her main focus was being a mother to her daughters, Katie and Paige. Cindy was an active member of Mt. Home Baptist Church. She loved playing the piano at church and had a special love for the youth girls she taught in Sunday school. Cindy enjoyed attending Carolina Hurricanes hockey games, spending time with friends and family at Sunset Beach, NC, and she loved spending time with her granddaughters, June and Abigail.
