To John, Perry, Jennifer and families. My warmest regard for each of you as you stand together with family and friends at this difficult hour. Cynthia will always hold a special place in the hearts of all who knew her. Her presence among you will be missed but that does not mean she left empty handed. "Yea saith the Lord that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them" Revelation 14:13. She took with her all the love you gave over all the years. I am privileged to call her My Friend.
