I was reflecting on the past. Cindy came to mind. I decided to try and find her through Google and saw this. Needless to say, I'm shocked and heartbroken! I knew Cindy for years back in the 90s. She was not only a co-worker, she was a friend. Keeping her name in prayer and praying for her sons and daughter. I'm so so sorry for your loss. Feel free to contact me at katallen813@gmail com
