Cynthia dedicated many years to secretarial work, where she was known for her exceptional typing skills, reaching an impressive 120 words per minute. She was a woman of many talents and passions—an accomplished pianist, an avid gardener, and a gifted artist who worked with both watercolors and oils. She was highly skilled in the art of seamstress work including designing and sewing the uniforms.  She was a Majorette for the Monroe High School Marching Band leading the Junior Corp in the parades. Cynthia also found joy in baking, creating beautiful wedding cakes that brought happiness to many.

A woman of strong Christian faith, Cynthia found great comfort in studying the Bible and living her life guided by her beliefs. She was a devoted mother to her three children and a loving grandmother to her five grandchildren. Cynthia had a warm and generous heart, always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need.
