Super Sweet Mother-in-Law

As one can easily see from the photo pages, Cynthia was a larger than life sort of person with an unforgetable damatic flair and devious sense of humor, but that certainly wasn't all she was. Over these last years that she lived with us, I will remember her, primarily, for how she was always so sweet to me. Always thankful, always grateful. Always telling me that I am just the sweetest son-in-law in the world. For six years, no matter how much discomfort her illness was causing her, she was never not incredibly sweet to me. Even though I could almost never seem to succeed at delivering her the extra marinara sauces that she frequently requested when ordering food from restaurants, she never showed disappointmet or frustration toward me, just gratitude and kindness till the end. Thank you, Cynthia, for showing me how to live with dignity and gratitute even in difficult circumstances. Love you, always.
