Jared and family,
I am sorry I was unable to attend the funeral today. I am so sorry for your loss and wish you peace at this difficult time.

I never had the opportunity to meet Cindy, but I was able to get to know about her through her son Jared. Jared is a thoughtful and kindhearted man who is respectful to all he encounters. The way in which he talked about his mother gave me a glimpse of the importance of being kind, genuine, and loving were to her. What a wonderful gift to pass on to future generations. God's blessing to the family and friends who are feeling the loss of this beautiful woman.

Cindy worked with me back around 1981 as the secretary for the Youth Advocate Program in Eaton Rapids. She was always a great worker and a very kind person. I'm so sorry to hear that she passed away way too young. My condolences to her family.
