Cindy was a childhood friend of mine that I have thought about so often through the years. I grew up on 60th street in Kansas City, MO. I spent the night with her so often, we had great times as pre-teens. We lost touch after we both moved from that area. I was saddened to see that she had passed away when I was searching for her. I remember her sister Reba as well. My prayers for her family. I wished I would have been able to see her as we became adults. We had so much fun as kids.
