    When I look at Cindy, I see her family and the incredible love and support that was poured into her. She was a giver, a server, a helper, a kind and compassionate woman. She was fierce and determined. My thoughts and prayers are continual for Orlando and the children, my Aunt Costella and Uncle Nathan and William and Tony. I love you all and am lifting you up at this difficult time.
