    It’s so heart breaking to hear the loss of such an amazing kindhearted woman. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Cindy from coming into Publix. Cindy would always make it a point to stop and say hello to me and ask me about my kids and how I’ve been. Over the years of knowing Cindy she became a friend that I always looked forward to speaking with. I would always tease her about her Reese cups and tell her to make sure she didn’t eat them all at once. Cindy was a trip...she always made me laugh or smile when we spoke. Rick...my heart goes out to you for the loss of your beloved wife and best friend. You two were ment for each other. I would always tell her to tell you hello. She would call you her Ricky. Whenever she spoke of you, she had a sparkle in her eye. Just know that Cindy is resting easy and flying high. She will always be a part of you forever. My prayers are with you Rick. God bless you.

    I have put off writing here because coming here and seeing all this just makes it too real. I have known Cindy since 9th grade and we always had so much fun together. So glad I visited her and got to meet the love of her life, Ricky. She loved taking care of him and I have never seen two happier people. I will miss you Cindy.

    I read a quote: There is no death. People only die when we forget them. If you can remember me, I will be with you always. Cindy will be remembered as a wonderful teacher , a fabulous cook , and a sweet southern lady. She loved her Ricky and always said so when we talked. Cindy's memory will live on in our hearts. We will be praying unceasingly for you Rick. May God Bless You and Comfort You. Love , your Brother and Sister in law Steve and Pam Van De Mark.

    I knew Cindy for about 12 years. I spoke to her several times a week when she'd call to Talk to her Ricky Bob. She'd always take a moment to ask how I was.
    I'll forever remember her asking me to show her how to use Facebook. What I thought would take 10 minutes went on for over an hour and one notebook full of notes. She never did quite take to it.
    I'll miss her calling me Darlin' or Blessin' my Heart.
    She was an amazing woman!
    She had a way with keeping Rick's britches pressed. You could slice bread with them.
    Heaven is a much better place with her there.

    Cindy was my daughter in law, and I always felt that she was my daughter.
    We had a close relationship over the years, but we were closer after the death of her mother 12 yrs. ago. This has been a very trying time for all
    of us, but knowing she is no longer in pain and suffering that plagued her
    for years, eases the pain of losing her. I am thankful for the close
    relationship she had with my son and my family, and I know she felt the
    love. Rest in peace, with much love and caring,
    Sylvia (Mom)

    I met Cindy almost 33 years ago on a blind date arranged by mutual friends. She informed me that if we were continue to date I needed to know that Saturday’s were for college football and she never missed a Georgia Bulldog game. I told her that would never be a problem and I soon became an avid Dawg fan.
    On May 17th I not only lost my wife, I also lost my best friend. My world will now have a void that I will never be able to fill.
    I would like everyone to know how much I owe her. She was my biggest fan and always helped me navigate love and life. She always was the balance that made my life happy and content.
    Her love of cooking was only surpassed by her intellect and sense of humor were her best attributes. She loved to laugh and I loved to make her laugh. She told me that’s the thing she loved the most about me. I always kept her laughing.
    She was always the best dressed girl in the room. Took so much pride in her appearance and helped coach me into what was appropriate for me to wear as well.
    I love you Cindy and will miss you every day of my life. I am your biggest fan.
    Love, Rick
