Dear Bascom family, I was so sad to hear of the passing of Cindy. We grew up together, I have fond memories of our younger years, seeing her at Dairy Queen and running into her at Riverside Casino. She will be missed! My sister Shelly and Becky have been best friends since elementary. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace Cindy, until we meet again. Sending hugs and love to all!

My memory comes from Justin and Beth’s wedding. -the first time I ever met her I walked up to her and said “hi momma”! Without hesitation she said hello baby and gave me a hug that only a mom can give. At that very moment I knew she was an amazing mommy!! Moments are just seconds in time unless they are filled with extraordinary events and that one was truly a great one! She will be forever missed and cherished for the loving lady she was.
Sorry for loss to the family I knew her well for years at bingo family get together and seeing her at DQ thru the window we gave each other bull I will miss her alot.
