Cindy had many hobbies, which included singing, playing the piano, sewing, cooking, gardening, reading, playing card games and traveling. Most of all, she enjoyed spending time with her husband, children, grandchildren, parents, and friends.

Cindy loves her Lord Jesus Christ and was passionate about sharing it with all around her by speaking words of encouragement and lighting up a room with His love. Her love for others was evident as she lifted them up in daily prayer.
