Cindy, 
You will always be the glowing flame in my heart, my mind and my life that lights the way and guides me to cherish the important things in life's journey.  I will always share a moment of every day with you until we are together again. 
We love you.
Sister Terry & Brother Guido

Words for Cindy

I never forgot to write... But unlike some people who had the words to speak of Cindy, I didn't have the words right away, they were nonexistent. It wasn't because I wasn't close with her it was the simple fact I thought I had more time to share with her. I thought I had one more time to go to lunch and fill her in on where I was in life and how beyond grateful I was that she was a piece of the puzzle to help me be successful to fulfill my dreams of playing collegiate softball at the highest level. She wasn't just a tutor, she was a life long mentor that taught me how to have patience, push the people around you to obtain ones dreams and goals... even if it seems so dull or unattainable. She was an inspiration in many more ways. 

Cindy wasn't quick to let me all the way in about her personal life but as time passed she would brag about Chuck, Laura and Mike. Cindy would say how beautiful her family was, how proud of each and everyone of them she was for different reasons. She was a perfect example of loving them for them, never trying to make them into something they weren't. Cindy knew how to love unconditionally and to never give up on what she believed. She always spoke positively about situations even if she might have thought differently. I never knew she was strong in her faith but that's something I wish we could have discussed when we went to lunch when I got back from college... To share our walks of Faith with one another, to hear what God was doing in our lives and how He continued to show up. God brought her a wife for Mike and soon after a precious granddaughter, then brought Laura a caring and handsome Fiance; which brought Cindy more joy then words can explain. She always was a ball of sunshine. 

When I first started getting tutored by Cindy, it was all business. I would ring the doorbell sometimes Chuck would come to the door and sometimes Cindy would answer the door but then we went straight up to the "classroom". I will never forget how she would always have her hot tea and her perfectly sharpened pencils. She didn't just have one pencil for me and one for her, she always had back up sharpened pencils for the both of us. As time passed and we spent more and more sessions together I started to see her softer side, the side that you sometimes never see from teachers but I got to see it with her. As time passed and we continued to work together, I became part of the family by letting myself into the house, her offering me water and some snacks and then headed up to the "classroom" or taking a tour around the house so she could show me what Chuck, the kids or she was working on and how proud of it she was. It was a beautiful relationship being formed. I then went off to high school and didn't see her as much but saw her here and there. Then went off to college and spoke to her every now and then but when your in that stage of life you think everyone will be around forever. Then you graduate and realize you've just accomplished something very special and to make a point to reach out, thank and brag on the ones who put the pieces to the puzzle together. Because the Lord knows I didn't reach my goal of graduating with my bachelors from Texas Tech University by myself. 

We had wanted to go to lunch but with both of our schedules just never got to it. My heart broke and is still broken from those words that went unspoken and those feelings I was never able to express to her. But I do know the love she had for me. I believe she knew I loved her back and I know she is smiling down on each and every one of us now sitting and having her hot tea with the Lord! What a beautiful picture. She may be gone from this earth but she will be forever in my heart and many people's hearts. Not a day goes by that I don't think about her, and that's a beautiful thing in my eyes, to know she impacted me in such a deep way that she will always live on! Cindy you were a teacher, mentor and now a lifelong friend that I will see in eternity! Love you more than words and we will keep striving to be the best and to keep learning and growing as you have always believed and pushed us to!! Until we meet again my beloved Cindy!

One year and a day since you've been away - from friends and family who prayed you could stay. Your notable legacy of love and caring signifies truly life is eternally enduring. Miss you little sister. Love always. Joan

I met Cindy 8 years ago we had just moved from Wisconsin and Jon my husband worked with Laura . I was waiting for our house to sell and we were in an apartment. Laura suggested I get together with her mom for lunch and we did. After that I did feel alone and she introduced Jon and I to her other friends .Jon got to know Chuck and we had many wonderful times with the two of them. 
Cindy was so generous and welcoming and the best hostess with the most is . We laughed and cried together and totally enjoyed life together. Thank you Cindy for being a wonderful friend and I miss you with all of my heart. Love Sue & Jon Burren

So which one is Cindy? There are three, just call out Cindy and you are likely to be right. 
so went the introduction to anyone joining our family holiday gatherings for the first time. 
We also went back and forth for what seemed like years about how to differentiate ourselves, old, new, young? No, that didn't work! Chuck's Cindy, Rich's Cindy, ? Big Cindy, Little Cindy, Middle Cyndi? No. Finally we realized that it was probably best to use middle names. I have been so lucky to share a name with two amazing women I call Aunt.

Aunt Cindy Lou was always such a warm and welcoming host and guest at every holiday I can remember. Thanksgivings had her behind the counter in the house preparing food when you arrived, but she always smiled and welcomed you in to the kitchen. When the meal was done, she always took off her apron and announced her job was done. I remember festive sweaters, sparkly earrings and big hugs at Christmas. And that laugh, oh how we'll miss that laugh! She not only hosted with a big smile but that laugh was the background music at so many holidays! I remember one Thanksgiving recently that she and George were laughing about something and some of us were smiling in a different room because of their laughter.  
I will miss her smiling face and laughter, every day, but especially on holidays, something will be missing without her.

I have some great memories of Cindy that I wound like to share. First I use to get tutoring from her when I was in elementary school. Early in the morning I would ride my bike under the wadsworth tunnel and thru the park up to the Hauses house. Cindy and I would sit there doing practice exercises. Looking back I don't even know what we did, I just remember being there with her and playing GameCube with Mike after! Haha the next memory is the day in 4th grade I went to school find out Aunt Cindy was my substitute teacher for the day. This was a shocking experience, it was one of the funniest days of the year! And of course, the morning after thanksgiving donuts. Some of my best memories with the Hauses were sitting at the breakfast table laughing with everyone while waiting for fresh homemade deliciousness! Every time I was around Cindy she had a positive attitude that seamed to rub off on people, a trait that is vary important to me in my life. Thank you for everything you have done, I will always love you!

-Garrett

I first met Cindy when our daughter Cyndi married Chuck's brother Richard.  Laura was the flower girl and I made her a dress to match the bridesmaids dresses.  The Hause family traditionally get together four times a year.  We host the Easter dinner, Chuck's sister Sue and husband Dennis host the 4th of July barbecue, Chuck and Cindy have the Thanksgiving dinner (Chuck always cooked TWO turkeys and Cyndi decorated the house) and Rich and Cyndi host the Christmas Eve party.  Cyndi loved these get togethers and always brought great food and games and activities for all to enjoy.  She will be sadly missed by family and all who knew and loved her.

On behalf of our family, I would like to thank every one of the 170 that attended the services for Cindy, and those many others that were unable to attend.  Thank you very much for your kind thoughts and words,  the lovely cards, the food, contributions to the Wings of Hope and everything that all of you have done to help us through this hard time.

Chuck, Laura, Mike, Andrea and Gianna

My deepest sympathies to all of the family. As a 'relative' outsider I was always welcomed by Cindy like one of the family into the house.

I had the absolute pleasure being Cindy's hairdresser and friend. I always looked forward to her coming in. We shared a lot of laughter and the greatest of times. I always loved to hear of her current events. She loved her family beyond words, I loved hearing her excitement. She would always bring into show me what she working on at the time, the treasures she made for her family. I am going to miss her so very much. Knowing she is now with our Father and she didn't leave this earth in a suffering state helps ease the pain. May dear precious Cindy rest in peace.

Cindy was more than a neighbor to my mom and Tom. Chuck, Cindy, Laura, Mike and  Andrea welcomed us into their family and home.  We love her more than we can express and will miss her everyday. We are forever thankful and blessed for the time we spent together and will cherish all the great times and holidays we spent together.  Sweet dreams Cindy and God bless you and your family.

Eight years ago Cindy open her heart and home to our family and in a short time she made us feel like we belong. Our hearts are broken but we find solace in the knowledge that her love is forever.

Cindy brought so much fun and happiness into our lives.  We "learned" to western dance, went on trips together, and had Thanksgiving get-togethers with lots of family.
We will always remember her laugh and think of her often.

Cindy was always so warm and loving towards our family.  We will never forget all our joyous holidays and special occasions spent together. She will be dearly missed.

My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.  Cindy was a wonderful person.  She had a strong spirit and a love of life. First and foremost she loved her family so very, very much.  She was always so proud and happy to be a wife, a mother, a mother-in-law and a grandmother.  It was always fun to catch up with her on the news of Laura and Mike.  The last time I saw Cindy, it  still makes me smile and chuckle.  Pete and I ran into Cindy while on a walk.  I asked her what was new...in under 3 seconds, she had whipped out her cell phone and had her 'portfolio' of beautiful Gianna displayed.  I have never seen anyone navigate that quickly on a cell phone.  It was so darling and still makes me smile.  That is a great moment I will always hold dear in my memory.  You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.  God bless, Colleen

I will always have the sweetest memories of Cindy and times I spent with her and her family. Cindy was always so warm and welcoming and treated me like I was a member of the family. I'll never forget sewing class in the dining room, family game nights and holiday dinners. I feel so blessed that I got to know her. Hause family I am thinking of you and sending you love!

My Sister. Never have I known a time my Sister was not Here. From childhood days of hopes and fears to natural wondering Ways - her life was filled with joy and love - Her heart went out to many. She shared our lives and always made things better. We held her dear throughout the years Ron - Joan - Ken & Terry - Mary - Bob; and tho our tears still fall with memories and Cindy's life on earth is over -- we know within our hearts she's safe and waits for us in heaven. Your sister, Joan

Chuck and family

I was so sorry to hear about Cindy.  All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.  She has joined the rest of the Hause family in heaven and will be there to welcome the rest of us when we join them.

I was sorry that I couldn't make it to the services, but I was thinking about you all day.

Cindy did her student teaching in my classroom at Dutch Creek Elementary in south Jeffco. She had the students sit around a "bonfire" to tell Native American Legends...so loving, caring, creative. She touched many lives and will be missed.  Mary Mueller Brown

Aunt Cindy was so nice to always invite us crazy cousins to stay after thanksgiving.  After cooking for us the entire day before (prepping for a week) she still woke up with a smile on her face to make us doughnuts.  
I remember being so jealous that Garrett was lucky enough to have her as a substitute teacher in his 4th grade class.  How awesome would I have been if I got to show off my aunt!
I still cannot quite picture the annual family gatherings without her smiling face and perpetual optimism.  How lucky are we that she left behind a family full of her amazing qualities.

I know Cindy through water aerobics although she hadn't been there in sometime.  We had the same political views and some lively discussions!  I will miss those.  RIP, Cindy.

I'm so fortunate to marry into the Hause family and have Cindy as my sister-in-law.  She was so gracious and welcoming and made me feel as part of the family from day one.  She's always been the life of every family get together organizing games, walks after eating or sitting by the fire telling stories.  She was such a great story teller and so interesting to talk with because she was so knowledgeable about everything.  I admired her ability to make everyone feel comfortable and welcome in their home.  We will miss her smile and laugh so much but are comforted to know her faith in God was deep and she is in the arms of the Lord.

I will miss Cindy.  The Cub Scouts always looked forward to any activity at Cindy Hause's house.Cindy always had the house set up perfectly to insure the boys had a good time.  Also, it helped that Chuck shared his tools!  Cindy would do anything for her kids.  Laura & Mike:  Know that you are loved by your Mom.  Chuck:  We grieve with you.  Andrea, this one is for you.....I have never seen anyone navigate a smartphone as quickly as Cindy as she shared Gianna's latest baby pictures!  "The beat goes on"  Love from Pete Stein

 I came to know Cindy when she tutored me in math during middle school. Middle school is such an awkward stage in life so her kindness, grace and encouragement greatly impacted me. Cindy always took the time to connect with me. She was such a source of strength for my sister and me.                                       As I grew older I realized Cindy was an exceptional person. She had this extraordinary passion for life. You could immediately feel her warm spirit and love embrace you. She was the kind of person you could listen to for hours. I still remember her stories about traveling in her younger days.                                     I am so grateful to have known Cindy. I will always carry her light with me. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Chuck, Laura and Mike. May the warmth of Cindy's spirit always bring you peace.

The Christmas Eve party began when Cindy walked in. She brought the light in her smiles and laughter.  She brought the stories.  She brought something yummy to eat. She made everyone near her feel warm and welcome.  We will miss her.

Cindy was a wonderful woman filled with fun, kindness and so many talents.  I enjoyed the quilting group Cindy started.... You are all in my thoughts and prayers... May your memories bring you comfort during this difficult time.

Our dearest friend and wonderful neighbor. We will find comfort in our cherished memories.  Cindy who deeply touched our lives with her caring ways, fun loving times, infectious laughter and ever giving love.  We miss her and our sweet, beautiful friend will be forever in our hearts.

This picture says it all. She was beautiful on the inside and out. A wonderful friend and neighbor. She was loved! We will miss her dearly! She was so good with our grandchildren. They loved her too!

We will keep all of you in our prayers and please come and see us when you can Chuck.. Our prayers are with all the family.  



                                            Minnie Bradshaw

Cindy will be greatly missed. She was such a great neighbor and friend.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of your family.  She was such a precious  person and a great lady. She will be so greatly missed.

So sorry for. Your loss. She had just joined our knitting group. She will be sorely missed

Cindy was such a kind and loving friend with a ready smile and caring heart.  We truly enjoyed our times together sharing meals and playing board games.  There is most certainly an empty place in our lives and our hearts ache along with yours.  May the Lord bless and keep you all and grant you the peace that passes all understanding.

Our hearts are breaking as we have lost a dear friend and neighbor. Cindy always had a beautiful smile on her face, a sparkle in her eyes, and joyful laughter often bubbled from within. She offered to go walking, then running, with me after the birth of our son 22 years ago in my desire to lose the baby weight! She seemed to sense what people needed, and she always made herself available to help. We will continue to pray for peace and comfort for you, Chuck, and also Laura, Mike and Andrea. Our love to you all.

Our deepest sympathy to you Chuck, Mike, Laura and may your fond memories of Cindy help you celebrate her life.

It's unfortunately been years since I last saw Cindy, I now wish I'd had the chance to tell her what a special place she's always had in my heart more recently. She was one of those people who could make a cold day warmer with nothing more than some kind words and a hug, her loving spirit always shined bright. Way back when Laura and I were teenagers and I started crashing her house every weekend, Cindy welcomed me with open arms and became like a second mom. I'll never forget all of the holiday dinners, our trip to the cabin, going on hikes and walks around the neighborhood, and her constant reminders to always be good to myself and never let life get me down. Cindy opened her arms, her home, and most importantly, her heart, to everyone she met. I loved hearing about her worldly adventures, playing board games after a delicious home-cooked dinner, our friendly bickering over politics, and watching her sense of humor make Chuck laugh whenever he got a little grumpy:-) That was just Cindy, always turning the negatives around and making the people around her smile. She was beautiful, generous, funny, smart as a whip, and strong in her convictions. 

But above all, I remember her love for her family. They were her world and she epitomized what a wife and mother should be through her strength, compassion, and unconditional support. 

Chuck, Laura, Mike, Andrea and Gianna: You're all in my thoughts during this difficult time. As hard as it is right now, I hope you take comfort in knowing how happy and fulfilled you all made her feel. She didn't just say it, I saw it on her face whenever she had her family together around her. On behalf of myself and my parents (who also adored her) we're all pulling for you and hope you find some peace and light to guide you through this dark time.

Our deepest sympathy Chuck to you and your family. I fondly remember the coffees and lively conversation that Cindy and I shared while Laura and Heidi played, when they were little. May caring thoughts comfort you at this time. Sincerely, Marilyn and Jack Munger

Cindy tutored my children and made a huge difference in their lives. She was always so kind. I will remember her fondly.

Cindy always had a smile when I saw her.  She was a smart intelligent woman and could provide sound wisdom.  I will miss seeing her shining face here in the mountains.

I was so sorry to hear about my Aunt Cindy and Godmother passing away.. The news felt unreal. She was such an incredible person that I looked up to, I loved her smile, energy, and her spirit. I will always remember our times together and keep her memories close to my heart.

Aunt Cindy holds a special place in my heart.  Not only was she my aunt, but she was my godmother.  That someone special that your parents trust unconditionally with their most precious package.   I have memories of her when I was little coming to visit and She always had a warm and welcoming smile for me.  My heart breaks at the loss of such an amazing woman.  Heaven truly has another angel watching over us and my thoughts and prayers go out to my uncle and cousins.   I pray they find peace and healing as they remember and celebrate her life.

While I only met Cindy a handful of times, she was always a ray of sunlight who went out of her way to make me feel welcome. I am so sorry for your loss.

We will miss her so much, thankful we were able to spend time together this summer and that she was able to teach Angelina to crotchet.

Cindy is one friend we will never forget and will miss her Great Laugh and Wonderful Smile. I always looked forward to when Cindy would come visit us. She was so real and such a down to earth person that loved her family and friends like no other. She has left such a positive impression on us. Cindy is an amazing person that we will never forget.

I was so shocked to hearing of Cindy's passing.  She was such a wonderful caring lady.  We will miss her dearly at bowling every week.  God bless the family.  Denice Kepler (Golden, CO)

Beautiful woman and a beautiful family. So sorry for your loss.

She was a beautiful soul that the world will be less bright with out her. May her light be transferred to her family members so they have the strength to be without her. You will be missed.

So sorry to hear about Cindy's passing. Our prayers are with the family at this time of sorrow. She was a wonderful lady. Eloy, Gloria and Matt Gonzales

It was a delight to have Cindy lead us in book studies at St. Francis Cabrini for she was such an open and compassionate leader.  Through our weekly readings and discussions you could see her faith grow stronger.  Cindy's  laughter and smile will be missed, and my life is enriched by having known her.

What a beautiful Angel Cindy was to know in our Book Study at St. Francis Cabrini.   I am shocked and saddened by her passing.  Another Angel has earned her wings.  She will be missed by many.  

With great love-

Teri Walsh

Our hearts are heavy. Cindy was a beautiful bright light in our St Francis Cabrini book studies. Her wit and wisdom along with her ability to share heartfelt stories, lifted us up during class. We looked at Mary, Martha and Lazarus along with Fr. Albert Hasse. She lead us in studies and in faith formation. Cindy, your smile is with us all . Hugs, Natasha

We are so sorry for your loss!  Cindy will be greatly missed.  You are in our thoughts and prayers! 
Love The Orners,
Howard, Felisha, Izzy & Marcus

To Cindy's family     We really enjoyed Cindy in our "Mary and Martha" study at St. Frances Cabrini.  She help me lead the class, and was a delightful friend.  Blessings to all of you.   Pat Nash
