Paul & family,
We are so sorry to hear of Cindy’s passing. Moving to Alliston from out of town we’ve always considered ourselves tremendously lucky to be surrounded by such kind and friendly neighbours and Cindy was the perfect example of both of those qualities. She welcomed the birth of both of our babies with books and well wishes and was always so sweet to them when walking by. Her kind smile will never be forgotten. Keeping you in our prayers and feeling very grateful for the short time in which we got to know Cindy.

Dear Bennet and Thiele Family and friends,
As a friend of Janet’s, it was always heartwarming to hear family stories. Once I was lucky to have a lovely meal prepared by Paul and Cindy that seemed to come out of thin air. Amazing, thoughtful hosts and family. I am very sorry to hear of Cindy’s passing.
