Cindy lived in Kittanning all of her life and worked as a child care provider.

She was also very active in “Bingo” games at Garden Towers where she lived.
She was a three time cancer survivor and was very faithful in selling candy and baking cookies for her Relay for Life team. She had a wonderful spirit of adventure and was always willing to go with friends on trips to new places.

Sarah (Matt) (Daugherty) Frey of St. Mary’s; Andrew (Laura) Rupp of Cranberry Township; Danielle (Isaac) (Rupp) John of Kittanning; and Joshua (Claire) Rupp of Kittanning.
