Deepest sympathy to her family and friends . I fondly remember Cindy in high school as being such a cheerful fun loving friend, classmate. Seems we tend to lose touch after school. But keep up through friends. It was such a surprise to hear of her passing. I know she will be deeply missed. God Bless and comfort you all!! Pamela K Johnson-Jones.

Nancy Spensley I worked with Cindy at Colemans for some years we became friends and had many good visits while we worked. Ran into her and Corky many times after they were married, as they lived close to our family farm. The family has my sympathy and prayers during this sad time.
