Greg, you wrote a beautiful tribute to your Mom. ... I met your Mom in 1990 in Pleasanton. She was such a wonderful Friend. She helped me understand ala-anon and how to live with alcoholism. Cynthia loved my son like a Grandson until she had her own. She was a wonderful coach and instructor for smoking cessation. Cynthia was simply a great person. I will miss her very much xoxoxoxoxoxo
Cynthia changed my life, allowing me to take her smoking cessation classes three times until I successfully quit 20 years ago. She was patient and loving. Cynthia loved lattes from McDonald’s and would ask me to bring one to her on my way to long conversations in her home. I will miss her smile and her energy. She was a beautiful kind soul.
