Cindy you were the bravest and strongest person we’ll ever know. You will never be far from our thoughts and always in our hearts. We love you.
God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you and whispered “Come with Me.”
With tear filled eyes we watched you suffer and fade away.
Although we loved you deeply, We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands put to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us he only takes the best.
Love Your Family
