Saddened by the loss of Gail, such a kind spirit. Traveled to many NAUW conferences with this kind soul. She raised my nephew Tarik like a mother. Always kept up with my daughters she knew by name, never forgot us. Take your rest Cynthia Gail, heaven gained a true angel.

My heart hurts for the lost of our beautiful-spirited Cynthia and for her husband, children, family and all who loved her. Cynthia, a woman who had a heart full of love for God and others, caring and sharing, but with a special place in her heart for children. Rather supporting me in the church, as a NAUW sister or leader, or just whenever or wherever we got a chance to chat, Cynthia's actions proved she cared. 1 Thessalonians 4:16 says "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:"
May she rest in peace...
