Cindy was a classmate at Omaha South, Class of ‘73. RIP
Amanda- my heartfelt thoughts of sympathy to you and your family. Love, light, and strength to you my friend.
So very sorry to see this. Cindy was a classmate at South. She was a very nice lady and always had a smile. May she rest in peace. Sending prayers to her family and friends.
Amanda, what a great joy to have met your mom and dad over the years as well as other members of your family. You are all blessed to have had her in your life. We wish your family healing and peace. Take time to grieve with your family. Enjoy all those great memories with your mom. She will be smiling down on you all.
My heart aches for Ralph, Amanda, Malinda, and the rest of Cindy’s family. We were on Student Council together at South High and she was a joy–brilliant smile, fun-loving, perpetually happy and optimistic. Cindy was one of those dear friends that years may go by between seeing each other, but the minute you got together, the years melted away and laughter ensued. Sending heartfelt sympathy, strength, and hugs to Cindy’s family.
Cindy had that same infectious smile for as long as I knew her at Saint Mary’s Grade School and South High. Rest in peace, Cindy.
“My deepest condolences to you and your family during this difficult time.”
Dear Amanda, I am very sorry to hear about your loss. I could tell by the way you talked about your mom that she was a wonderful person. I am sending hugs and prayers to you and your family. Hold on to the amazing memories you have of her. (Especially, the holiday traditions and gatherings.)
