Cynthia Osborne Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Benton-Glunt & Tapp Funeral Home on Dec. 9, 2025.
Cynthia Anne Osborne, 66, of Henderson, KY, passed away peacefully on December 8, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born with a bright spirit and a mischievous sense of humor, Cindy brought joy and warmth wherever she went. She was kind, funny, smart, and endlessly caring - the sort of person who made people feel seen, heard, and loved. She lived by the words she often shared: "Kill them with kindness." And she truly did.

To Cindy nothing was more important than raising her two girls. Her dedication to them and her sacrifices for them were unmatched. Whether it was vacations to Florida, or day trips to eat, living life was the mission, and their happiness was the goal. Cindy devoted many years to teaching middle school, sharing her love of reading and learning with countless students. Outside the classroom, she found joy in music, the calming rhythm of the ocean, and anything in the color purple. But nothing brought her more happiness than time spent with her grandchildren, who were the light of her life.

Cindy was preceded in death by her father Robert "Bob" Osborne and her brothers Glenn Osborne and Keith Osborne.

She is survived by her daughters, Katherine Duncan and her husband Robert and their children Lucie, Mollie, and Maggie and Emily Keith and her husband Lance and their children Warren and Ellie; her mother, Juanita Osborne. Cindy's legacy of kindness and love lives on through them and through all who were touched by her presence.

Relatives and friends are invited to Cindy's Life Celebration from 10:00 a.m. until service time on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at Benton-Glunt & Tapp Funeral Home. A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday at the funeral home with Pastor Robert Duncan officiating.

She will be deeply missed, forever loved, and always remembered.
