Cindy McCann Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 9, 2026.
Cindy Yvonne McCann, 54, of Michigan City, Indiana, passed away on January 8, 2026. Born on September 21, 1972, Cindy was known for her vibrant and outgoing personality, touching the lives of all who knew her.

Cindy's educational journey began at Westville Elementary/Middle School and concluded at Westville High School. Her early career saw a variety of jobs, which eventually led her to find her passion as an administrative secretary at NICTD (South Shore), a position she held with dedication until her untimely death.

Cindy's life was enriched by her deep relationships with family and friends. She is survived by her loving husband, Steve McCann; son, Austin McCann; mother, Sharon Hughes; sister, April Hughes; and brother, Dougie Hughes. Her father, Elmer Hughes, preceded her in death.

Her hobbies included enjoying the sun and the beach, always cherishing the time spent on vacations with her loved ones. Cindy's zest for life and the joy she brought to gatherings will be dearly missed.

Though there will be no memorial service, a celebration of life will be held at a later date to honor Cindy's memory. In lieu of flowers, a Go Fund Me page is being established to support her family during this challenging time. Cindy's legacy of warmth, friendship, and kindness will be remembered by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Finding the words that adequately describe how you touched all of us who knew you is hard for me. For those of us who were fortunate to work alongside you, all I can say is we were blessed. That smile that greeted us every day was infectious. Remembering the fun we had together collaborating on birthday celebrations for Austin remind me how easy it was to get to know you personally and how much you loved your son. Thinking of your enthusiasm to organize Christmas parties, retirement parties and our infamous chili cook-offs help me to postpone the sorrow your passing brings to me. Instead, I will speak for all of us who experienced the goodness of who you were and how you made an impact on our lives. You will forever remain in our memories. Let us have the hope that your passing encourages us all to seek out similar people who grace our lives with the joy you did. And of course, we will never forget your smile.
