Cindy was my best friend growing up. She was like my sister. We grew up and went different ways. we lost each other for a few years, but we found our way back together. I’m so glad I got to talk to her this past few months. I really loved her. She was the best rest in peace my sweet friend.
Jimmy always said Kayla was a spitting image of Cindy in the younger years. Cindy always welcomed me into the family. When I first moved down here to NC she would say words I was like huh? It was a "slang " I never knew. I will greatly miss her and the love she showed always.
I’m so sorry for your loss! I love you all! Prayers for comfort!
