It is with a heavy heart that we share that Cindy passed away a little before noon today. She was able to be moved to Our Lady of Peace Hospice facility earlier this morning and was surrounded by us, her friends Mary, Mary and Angie.

At this time and per Cindy's request, there isn't a plan for a memorial service. As you may know, Cindy donated her body to the University of Minnesota Anatomy Bequest Program. A service of gratitude, organized by the students for family and friends, is usually held in November and we will let you know when we have more information to share.

Cindy appreciated all your love and support. We will all miss her dearly.

Mary Helbach, Mary Giesler and Angie Bertrand
