Dear Kroe Family, I have just received a telephone call from Aunt Jeanne sharing the sad news of the loss of your dear Cindy. I extend my heartfelt condolences to all of you on such a loss for your family and her many friends. Cindy, Bruce, my brother Rich, AND our many....many Keefe cousins all grew up in a special environment of family gatherings. Remembering Christmas Eve festivities at our grandparents' farmhouse, family reunions at Aunt Dolly and Uncle Brad's farm or Aunt Carol and Uncle Don's house along the shores of Chautauqua Lake....with all the craziness of almost thirty first cousins....we did have wonderful times, enjoyed delicious food......and occasionally created a little mischief along the way...... So, dear family when I reflect on times with my cousin Cindy I will indeed have a smile on my face because I will remember her as a lovely lady with a big heart and a great sense of fun. I know that she will be terribly missed. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers. Treasure your own special memories! Hugs to all of you, cousin Linda
