Cynthia and her infectious laugh is going to be missed by all that knew and loved her. Enjoy heaven with all who went before you, sweet “Red”!
My second momma growing up, oh how I loved you, Cynthia! You taught me to love Diet Dr. Pepper & to fear a mad momma with a piece of orange hot wheels track in her hand. It takes a village, and I am blessed that you were my village.
Prayers to the family. I know safe and with all her loved ones again and that brings peace and comfort during this time of loss.
