Visit the Emmerson Bartlett Memorial Chapel - Redlands website to view the full obituary.
Cindi was born on June 8, 1948, in Redlands, CA to Helen and Earl Pruitt. Both of her parents died at a young age, and she was raised by her paternal aunt Luella and her husband Glen Solberg. Cindi married Rick McDowell in 1965 and they had two children, Rich and Rochele.
In her adult years, Cindi went back to school and graduated from Redlands High School. She worked at Stater Bros. for over 30 years and retired in her mid 50's. She was dedicated to her faith, and she was a supportive friend to her AA family. Cindi loved her hometown of Redlands and its history, collecting memorabilia and sharing stories. Her real love was gardening and her two cats, Petey and Noah. But what she valued and loved the most was members of her family, lifelong friendships, and the laughs and crazy moments they had.
Services will be held graveside at Hillside Memorial Cemetery in Redlands at 11:00 am, on June 14th. Arrangements have been made through Emmerson-Bartlett in Redlands.
