Cindy was my neighbor for many years. She and her Dad were wonderful people. The day we moved into our house, they came over with an apple pie to welcome us. We are so sorry to learn o her passing. I meant to call her last week; wish I had. Miss you. Love Larry & Jessica, Las Cruces, NM

For many years working on Cindy's beautiful house, garden, and kitty sanctuary we became true friends. I will miss her smiles, hugs, baking, humor, and the love for all creatures. We were there for each other. My heart goes out with sincere condolences.

Cindy has been our backyard neighbor for 25 years. She loved her cats and trees and plantings and she was always busy with them. We are so sad to hear of her passing and will miss her very much.

I was so sorry to hear of Cindy's passing. She and I were good pals when we attended McAllaster Elementary School, and we were also neighbors. I am attaching a picture that includes Cindy, taken at my birthday party in the 1950s in Lawrence, Kansas (Front row: Angela Elliott, Mandy Godfrey, Helen Livingston--me, Cindy Denton. Back row: Kathy Jones, Cynthia Gallup, Nancy Freed, Susan Sheppard.) May the Lord give peace to all her loved ones.
