Cynthia Zeidner, age 85, passed away on Tuesday, June 4, 2024 due to complications surrounding a fall in her home. She departed this life surrounded by loved ones, and her loss is unexpected, leaving those who knew her profoundly saddened.
Cynthia was born on December 2nd, 1938, and was raised as part of a close family. She had a way of endearing herself to people, and usually had pleasant stories or anecdotes to tell, of her father and of cousins in her life, even from a young age.
She led a remarkable and interesting life, including some travel, and youth spent with a Kibbutz in Israel. She was an active and practising member of the Jewish community throughout her life, as well as an Officer in the Daughters of the Nile, and a member of the Order of the Eastern Star. She was an active member of, and sang in the Adult Choir for Congregation Ner Tamid for many years.
She was an outspoken optimist, and loved the people around her. Unafraid to express herself and her beliefs, be they political, religious, or just feelings she had, Cynthia had a large and comforting presence in everything she was a part of.
She was a retired civilian employee of the Las Vegas Metro Police Department, a job she held dear, regularly sharing stories of her time there, and the generally pleasant, positive interactions she had with the Officers.
In her later years, she was a part of a Pub Trivia team, where she nurtured several of her friendships and made many more. She loved her social life, and made sure to keep people involved in her later years, and she made sure to make every occasion she was a part of special.
From her colourful discussions at the Passover Seder this year, to the large presence she had at Andrea and Ayo’s recent wedding, the void in the lives of her friends and family left behind is not going to be easily filled. She will be sorely missed.
A Family and Friends, service will be held at King David Memorial Chapel and Cemetery at 1:00 pm on Friday 06/07/2024. 2697 E El dorado Ln, Las Vegas, NV 89120.
She will be travelling to California soon after the service, and will be laid to rest at Mt. Sinai and Memorial park in Los Angeles.
