I want you to know how much I still appreciate how kind, wonderful and down to earth Cindy was. When I had cancer some people did not want to approach me because it made for an awkward conversation as I had visible signs of surgery. Not Cindy. She bucked up and walked over to me and started up a conversation. I could see in her face that she was willing herself to do it despite that it was not easy, but because it was the right thing, and I have never forgotten her kindness. But that was Cindy, brave, funny, kind, REAL. Over five years later, I think about Cindy still. What a great spirit she was. Thank G-d she was in the world to touch so many of us with her great spirit.

I cannot imagine the heartache your family must be going through. There is nothing that can be said that will make it easier...I don't know your family and I didn't know Cynthia, but I just wish there was something I could do. I wish I could reverse all of this somehow for you. Please hold on <3

Cindy was a colleague and friend for many years. Always kind, with great intellectual curiosity and keen legal abilities, Cindy was much loved around the courthouse. I remember her joy when she first met Hal and then later married and became pregnant. And I also remember her reaching out to help me and others at work when we needed it. Cindy was a very special person, and I will miss her greatly. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Hi,
I live in #103 and knew Cindy from seeing her in the building. We were online friends and I know she had to be friendly because she entertained guests and from time to time needed folding chairs. She kept us up on what was happening in the area parks, etc. She was so kind and beautiful to be around. I will treasure and remember her smiling face.

Cindy and I exchanged many emails regarding different issues at the Sutton, where we both lived since 2007. She was one of the first people my husband and I met prior to moving in at various information talks regarding the building. She was the kind of person you wanted to know more about and I looked forward to future gatherings. Cindy and I swam in the pool across the street every summer and talked about when it would open for the season. I remember seeing her with Keston and Hal quite often in the neighborhood. Surely she will be missed by many but definitely her loss had a profound impact on me. I will miss her deeply. She was a very kind soul. The kind of person the world needs.

Cindy and I had been chatting-over-the-fence neighbors since we moved to The Sutton in 2007. I'm missing her bright smile and warm personality. The family has my sincerest condolences.

I didn't know her, but my father worked with her dad Kurt for years at the NYSP. For years after my dad retired and was in extremely poor health, Kurt would stop over after temple to visit. If Cynthia was anything like her dad, she was indeed a treasure.

Cindy was the best among us. She exemplified graciousness and goodness. Cindy's smile and kind heart will forever be remembered. She will live on in the memories that are being shared between me and my classmates having been so privileged to have shared our childhoods and high school years with her. It was an enormous honor to have been called her friend and knowing Cindy made me a better person. You will be missed my beautiful friend and may your family know that you were truly loved by so many. Much love and my deepest sympathy for your loss.

I count myself fortunate to have known Cindy and have grown up with her. Not only was she brilliant, she was kind and generous, and loved by all who knew her. May she rest in peace and may her family be comforted during this difficult time.
