Cindy, you were the sunshine each day in the chaos at the post office and everyone loved you. Such a sweet woman with a big heart and a friend to everyone. You deserved so much more in life than you were dealt. It broke my heart to hear of your passing, but I know you are in good hands and no longer sick or stressed. Walk with Jesus in joy forevermore. ~ Julie Ridgley ~

The fun memories of my childhood always involve you in some way. Wether it was you babysitting me, eating fruity pebbles while you drank diet pepsi, sleepovers, knocking on your door early in the morning looking for Stacie and many other memories. But my favorite memories are the many trips to Redbrush in Uncle Danny’s brown van. I will miss you dearly Bonus Momma! Thank you for the amazing childhood memories!
