Comments:

Cynthia passed away on June 3, 2014 after a sudden downturn. She had been chronically ill for 5 years after a gastric bypass. She became gravely ill in March of this year.

She was well loved in our small town community, and is terribly missed by all her many friends and acquaintances. She asked that no one should grieve for her; instead, she wants everyone to celebrate her life of charity and caring.

She had one sister, Shirley Ann Shelnutt Wheeler, who attended Baker.
