Cindy Golden Obituary

Visit the Pugh Funeral Home - Asheboro website to view the full obituary.

Cindy Lemon Golden, age 72, of Asheboro passed on January 7th, 2025.

Loved by many, Cindy possessed a sweet and humble spirit and was always ready to listen and lift others up. 

She selflessly loved her family and friends and did all she could to help others. She had an ability to make people feel special when they were around her. 

Preceded in death by her parents Duncan Lemon and Kathleen Davis Lemon, Cindy graduated from AHS in 1970, where she played the clarinet, had countless adventures, and made friends for life. 

As an avid coffee drinker and cleaner of teeth, her career as a Dental Hygienist spanned 40 years. After graduating from GTCC, she worked in Elkin NC. Followed by 25 years with Dr. Ralph Eddy of Asheboro and more recently with Dr. Cleve Dunn. 

She is survived by her two loving children Sarah and Elliott Golden. 

Her love for them was boundless. 

Sarah is a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in Nashville and Elliott is a designer and engineer in New York City. When asked about them, she’d light up like the sun. 

It was her support and love that made them who they are. 

She is further survived by her beloved cousins Susie Tuttle Patton and Phoebe Burkhart and was a member of Balfour Baptist Church. Her faithfulness, gentleness, and loving heart were a testimony of the goodness of our Lord Jesus. 

The family will receive visitors on Monday, January 13 at 11:00 AM at Pugh Funeral Home (437 Sunset Ave. in Asheboro), which will be immediately followed by a chapel service at 1:00pm. After this, there will be a procession to Randolph Memorial Park for burial. 

In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to The American Heart Association
