Joy in her own life and for others. Cyndy trusted deeply in her Faith and in her own abilities and strengths. She believed in the power of prayer and of love. Cyndy chose to laugh often and to live in the moment. She cherished her relationships and memories with close friends and family. Cyndy was caring, loving, and unquestionably kind. She will be greatly missed and memories of her held dear by all she affected. A private service will be held at Bayview Cemetery, Pensacola FL, where she will rest. Additional services for all family and friends to celebrate Cyndy’s life will be announced at a later date.
