I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Cinthia. We certainly enjoyed her many years at Express Scripts. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family.
Hard to believe that she could be gone. My strongest, clearest memory of her is her laugh. Cindi’s faith served her well. She is more than OK.
We are so sorry for your loss, Cinthia was loved by everyone that knew her. May it give you some peace to know she is with the Lord and her dad! The precious memories you have will continue always. God Bless and we will see you later Cinthia.
i miss you grandma and i will always love u and mom.
