My dad worked with Cindy at Kyle for many years and she gave me my first babysitting job in Pburg. My dad taught me clean dishes or pick up after the kids to make it easier on the mom. But then she made me cook! Who eats noodles with plain tomato sauce? Nathan and Colby! lol. So it was easy and we survived. 🤢

I remember she helped me prank my friends on my way to a sleepover at Tiffany Thomas’s house. I said I was in a car wreck and broke my leg but would be over soon. They tried to kill me when I walked in fine. 😬

I remember Cindy’s wedding to Dan and the Byerleins and being sitter on duty that night. Meeting Paul and Vera was a blessing and he let me interview him about his time in war and shared his photos with me. Scruffy man but good soul. ❤️

I remember her gorgeous house in the country and how incredible she was at decorating. I loved that place and only seen it once probably 😆 

I moved to Florida about 20 years ago and she moved to Colorado and then Nebraska and I never got to see her again in the flesh 🥺

When my dad passed in 2021, she comforted me with words about how much he loved me and then again when my mom passed in 2023. She knew me well and she knew my parents hearts. She loved her kids with her all and I wish I could have seen her with her grandkids! I can only imagine how loving, fun and maybe a little spoiling she was 😍

I’m so sorry for your loss boys, and your kids’ loss. You had a great momma and there’s no doubt she lived and breathed for you all. May she rest in peace and be forever an angel still loving you from above and wanting the best life imaginable for you. Prayers and hugs. 🙏
