Dervin,
So very sorry for the loss of Cindy! Sincere sympathies to you and Cindy’s family!
To the family of Cindy. I was a customer of Cindy’s at Gardens to Go. She was one of the most hard working women I know. Every Spring she would make our planters look amazing. She was quite the creator of beautiful planters. Her passion was noticeable. She always guided me and directed me in the right direction when I had questions about flowers I was planting on my own. I am saddened by the news of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. She will be missed. I will always remember her knowledge, hard work and beautiful creations.
you will be so very missed my friend. My memories of you will always be of your warmth and friendship. GOD Peed my friend
Cindy was absolutely a beautiful soul. She would always help my mom and I for years at Gardens to Go. Most recently she did all my pots at my home over the summer. I could always count on her always!!!! So incredibly talented with flowers, gardening, and landscaping. I will miss her, her shop, and her genuine love for my family ❤️
We only met Cindy a few times and honestly know little about her personal life but she gave us the most wonderful gift we could ever ask for…our daughter in law. Thank you for raising such an amazing beautiful person we will forever be grateful to you. Derv, Katy, Corey & Mike our hearts ache for all of you. We’re so sorry for your loss of such a beautiful sole 💔
I am so sorry to learn of Cindy’s passing. I so love Gardens to Go, especially this time of year! Cindy had such a special touch. May her memory always be a blessing to her family and friends.
