I have fond Memories of Cynthia. We were Temple workers together at the Nauvoo Temple. We rode back and forth together for 4 years and sang 50’s and 60’s music all the way there and back. We had friends who rode with us and were entertained by our amateur renditions. I will miss her tremendously.
I remember her fun sense of humor. Whenever she was around, we were all laughing! She was my Visiting Teacher for several years and I always looked forward to their visits!
Cynthia was a wonderful friend. She will be missed greatly. Our prayers go out to her daughter and family. Marty and Bob Holder
