I’ve known Cindy since we were 8th graders and lived down the street from Mary Sue & Mike and her in Leawood. Mary Sue had a baby shower for my 2nd child at her house. I was in labor and asked her to keep it a secret. Which she did. I will always have a special place in my heart for this woman. I know how much Cindy will miss her mommy. We will always miss our Mary Sue. I miss my mom every day. I’m here for you, Cindy. I love you.

I was an “honorary neighbor†of Mrs. Mary Sue, via Peggy S. Mary Sue was always thinking of others, always caring and generous. Thankful to have known her. Rest in your dear Savior’s arms, good and faithful servant!

I know you didn’t say anything to me about losing my parents but Mark I’m sorry for your losses. I miss my dad every opening morning of turkey season, and I miss my mom everyday and grappling with myself every day? But at least she was there and I was holding her hand at 3:47 in the early morning when she passed.
