I was so sorry to hear about Cindy. I was in Country Cottage a lot and so enjoyed her. I miss her store and especially miss her. Rockton will not be the same. My many sympathies and prayers are for Jim and her family.

Who didn't love Cindy? She was such a kind, caring person and showed so much courage in fighting a long battle. We know everyone in the Rockton community is going to miss her. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jim and the family. Ray & Char Ferguson, Rockford, IL

Jim and Family, our sincere condolences to you and your family. Cindy was loved by all in the Rockton Community. She was such a loving and caring person. When I became Postmaster of Rockton she was one of the first business owners to welcome me. She always visited the Rockton Post Office and made all of our employees know they were appreciated. May God hold all of you during these grieving times.

Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. We just talked about Cindy and wondered how things were going. We miss our visits to the country cottage and both of you. Much love Roy and Ruth Rummel
