To the Post Family:
We will all miss Cindy very much, and I grieve for your loss. I will miss her smile, her sardonic wit, her eyes, her sense of humor, and her patience and love for all of us.
Cindy meant a lot to me, she taught me some very valuable lessons, and I am happy to have met her, worked with her, and together, we saved a few lives.
Rest in peace, Cin, I love you
Patty Puline
Cindy, I have always loved you and always will. You were there when I had no place to stay, when I got married, when I got married again (lol), when my son was born, when our friend was in trouble and needed help, you were just always there…you and TC. No one could possibly touch me like you have. Your Best Friend, Liz (Lizbeth)
Sorry for the loss of your daughter, sister, and wife, and my cousin. Wish we could be there with you, but will be there in spirit. Love, Debbie
Sorry I can’t come… not up to the trip now….other families members will be there.
will be thinking of all of you….Love, Alberta
Tom,
Are you the Tom Cowfer that used to live in Osceolo Mills/Frenchville in Clearfield Co.? If so, email me back.
But, no matter if you are or arn’t, I extend to you, my sympathy on the death of your wife. Sounds like she was a very special lady.
