Condolences & Tributes
Add A CondolenceWith deepest sympathy in the loss of your love one. Cynthia was not a stranger to anyone from what I heard. I never met Cynthia. She was my prayers partner for some years. I meet her on a prayer line with Audrey some years ago. One day she call after she got sick and said that she was going to start a prayers line on Tuesday and Thursday and asked me to conduct the Tuesday line and Mary Sterling will do Thursday. We do what she asked. I would love to have met her. My prayers are with this family and all of our prayers lines family members. We will keep you all in prayer. God will see us through this. Shelia keep praying and trusting God for everything. Hold to God's unchanging hand. I know that Cynthia will be watching over us all. Love you all. From the Bernard Bradley family in New Orleans, Louisiana.
May the beautiful memories bring comfort from the pain. The Bazile family (Ester, Reg, Kirk & DiNardo) bids farewell to our beloved cousin, Cynthia. Rest in peace!
