Tribute from Auntie Peggy
I have known Cindy Francis for 59 yrs. A gentle, loving, kind, caring person with a heart of pure love that epitonises humility and empathy are just a few words that describes Cindy Francis. She has left an indelible set of footprints on the hearts of her family, friends, associates and anyone who knew her.
Cindy Francis legacy will always be remembered in her children, Horace, to whom i am a godmother, Clive and Warren. We are consoled by the fact that so much of her admirable traits have been passed on to her "boys" as she living called them. Cindy loved her children with a passion abd instilled in them the value of life.
Perhaps out of the endless memories, is one that will always shine out; is when she had her first child. She was in her element and told me that she can't wait for others to follow. Cindy was an honorarable well respected woman, and her values were reflected in her commitment to servicing her church, Wood Green New Testament Church of God.
Cindy your death has been a struggle for me. In fact it's a "double whammy" to lose a husband and a friend within 3 months of each other, it's not easy. Not easy!
I quote from a writer the following words: "don't think of her as gone away her journey has just begun. Life holds so many faucets, this earth is just one if them. And think of as living in the hearts of those she touched. For nothing loved is ever lost, and she was loved so much".
End of quote
Cindy Francis has fought the good fight, finished the race and kept the faith.
I take this opportunity to offer condolences to Horace, Clive and Warren and other members of the extended family.
Cindy my friend, walk good. Rest in sweet eternal peace. Your friend Peggy Shippey.
