Wayne and family,

A loss this great is almost too much to bear, and everyone that loves you, and loved Cindy, understand that. Just know that Cindy made an impression on so many lives. She touched many lives and was a true friend to so many.
I have so many fond memories of our families interactions over the years and being able to share laughs and have good times. Many great times of worship together as well. Cindy was always dear to me - and I am glad to have known her in my life. Wayne, God will sustain and keep you - and your family - and rest in the assurance of being reunited again some day soon. I'd like to think she had a chance to see our Momma and Daddy when she entered the gates there! Heaven holds all of the ones we love.

With deepest sympathy,

H.E. "Butch" Wright Jr.

I will always cherish my time working with Cindy at the bank.
Those were some of the best days of my life. She was such a joy to be around, she certainly made me laugh everyday I saw her.

Wayne,
Mom and I are so sorry to hear of Cindy's passing. There is comfort in knowing that she now sits with God in heaven along with the many loved ones who have gone on before. I came across a picture the other day that I took at your church many years ago of Cindy and Ted (Kirvin) standing outside on the steps. Of course, as was Cindy she made a goofy face sticking out her tongue. I will always remember her humor and silliness. She always could make me smile. We will be praying for God's strength during this most difficult time. Your friends always!
Love,
Rebecca Williams and Debbie Powell Williams, Mt Pleasant, SC

I'm thankful each day for the time I had being able to visit with you. I enjoyed every moment that we shared together laughing and crying...( me most of the time ).
Cindy, out of all the people in this world ; I'm so Grateful that my brother found you. You were a WONDERFUL, DEVOTED and Loving Wife. I can say this because I witness you. Wayne never wanted for anything, because if you had any idea that he did... You made sure within your self,( you would do without ) for him to have it. The same way you were with Lil'Wayne and Boo. You were an AWESOME Mother !
I can not even comprehend how much you loved, protected and stood with my brother through all your trials and hardships. You always seemed to hold it together; either by joking or not saying a word. Most people weren't sure how to take you. No, you were not like other Pastors wife's...Quite and reserved. You spoke whatever and however it pleased you. That's what made you so Unique and Special.
Well... Saying all that ; I can honestly say this for you...
" YOU DID SHOW ALL SYMBOLS OF GODS LOVE"!
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your life for 42 years.
