Private Cremation.
Cynthia was a lovely, kind, and gentle soul whose warmth touched everyone she met. She devoted more than forty years of faithful service to Sheppard Pratt, offering compassion, steadiness, and quiet strength to those there.
A deeply spiritual woman, Cynthia found great joy in serving as a lector at St. Clement Church. She generously shared her time and talents throughout the years, always giving from the heart.
She cherished the beauty of God’s creation—delighting in nature, even in the simple wonder of a clear and peaceful sky. Her love for animals was immeasurable, especially for her beloved dog, Patrick, who brought her endless comfort and companionship.
Cynthia graced this earthly world with tenderness, faith, and a spirit that uplifted others. She has now gone home to be with the Lord, reunited in His eternal peace. She will be deeply missed by all who were blessed to know her.
