No matter how strong our faith is, the pain of losing our loved ones is difficult to bear. Cynthia was an extraordinary person. She was compassionate and kind and loved interacting with others. She loved her family and she left an impression on the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing her. She will be greatly missed. May the many cherished memories of Cynthia comfort you and may the promise of a future life free of pain and suffering bring you peace. You are in the thoughts and prayers of many.

Cynthia was a very special lady and I admired her for her fight. I met Cynthia when I was introduced to the Business Relationship Management team with the State. She welcomed me in and showed me the ropes and I always looked up to her for her experience and wisdom. She was beautiful inside and out, and will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time. Lorie Wilsher
