Cindy called us all “precious angels” when she herself was one. She loved everyone and everything that God has created. Her paintings of landscapes, seascapes, animals, flowers and portraits have been an inspiration to us all. Her faith in God has always been undiminished. She has touched our lives and hearts forever. Although her time on earth was cut short, our memories of her will live on.

Go now, Cindy, beloved wife, daughter, sister and friend and be with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, with the Almighty God in Heaven.

We will miss you so very much.
