She grew up in Sacramento, CA and moved to Salt Lake City in 2011 to live with her mother and stepfather Dr. Bill Halden. Cindy was truly a one of a kind and anybody who has met her could see how huge her heart was and how much love and compassion she had for the world. She brought love and kindness to everyone she met. She always wanted to help and was at her happiest when she knew she was helping others. She pushed the limits of life with her strong spirit. She was giving by nature, always wanting to give more. With her corneas, two individuals will be able to see the beauty she saw in the world.
