When our physical selves depart from this world, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, what remains are the memories captured in photographs, both print and digital, and perhaps 8mm film, and more recently on cell phone video cameras. More important are the memories that we have of our loved ones in our hearts and minds. Such are the memories that I have of Cynthia. She and I were first cousins and grew up next-door to one another. Our condolences to Mark and Nick and their families.

I was so sorry to hear of Cynthia’s passing. I wish to express my deepest sympathy to Mark and Nick and to all of Cynthia’s family. She was a dear friend which I have had the pleasure of knowing for over 60 years. She and I first met when we were students at Bowie Elementary and we always shared good times when we were around each other. Cynthia was a great person and she will be truly missed. Rest in peace, my dear friend.
