    I’m so sorry to see Cynthia has died. We were great friends till after college when I lost track of her. I’ve thought about her over the years but was never able to find her. My condolences to you and her daughter, I’ll be praying for you in the days to come.

    mark s ritter says:

    Hi Janet,
    It has been a long time and I’m very glad you reached out. Regarding your comment that you lost track of Cindy so did our family. My sister suffered from a mental illness most of her adult life which basically made her withdraw from family, friends and society in general. Once I found out that she had a daughter I reconnected with her and for the last 4 years I made their lives as comfortable/safe as she would allow. Her daughter Sarah who is autistic now lives with me and will for as long as I can continue to take care her.

    It was good to hear from you!
