PCHS Class of '83

At Catholic, Cindy was a joy living life to the fullest.  She was a member of flag corp, and she was a cheerleader.  Our senior year, Cindy represented our class in America's Junior Miss pageant.  After high school she continued to challenge herself.  She traveled around the country (Sacramento; Jacksonville; Norfolk, Va; Newport News; St. Louis; Philadelphia; Newark, Delaware; and Seattle, Washington) during her eleven years of marriage to a Naval Officer.  

She received her Associates of Science in Accounting from Pensacola Junior College, and she graduated with honors from the University of West Florida with her Bachelor of Arts degree in Management (2002).  She worked for the South Walton Chamber of Commerce and Room Makers Flooring.

Cindy's health declined from asthma complications.  She returned home to the loving care of her parents in 1998.  In  August 2005 Cindy was declared terminal with 3-15 months to live.  Cindy lasted 14 months.  With the love of the Lord, her family and friends Cindy lived a full life inspiring others.  Words do not describe the loss of such a dear and thoughtful friend.

Cindy wrote "May all of God's Wondrous Blessings Fill Your Heart."

Cindy has written many poems commemorating special days for her friends.  Below is a poem Cindy wrote and wished to include in her memorial materials.
