I knew Cindy Jo through working at the MDA and became instantly close to her....because of her smile, her laughter, and her ability to love and comfort everyone. I think I will remember most her face at the Cinco De Mayo parade, she was so full of joy and life that day! My son and fiance both had a small amount of time to get to see how wonderful she was, but still will miss her terribly! Not a day will go by that I do not think of her and her ability to live life to the fullest. If any of you need anything, even just to talk...please dont hesitate to get in contact with me. All our Love,

Krysten, Robert, and Little Ryan
