Thursday, March 14, 2024

I was in Florida and only recently learned of Cindy's passing. Cindy and I did our Master's of Social Work degrees together. The classes were scheduled on Friday nights from 7-10 and Saturday morning 9 am till noon. Rather than driving home to Leamington after class on Friday night, Cindy stayed with family in Windsor. I picked her up and drove her back as I lived close by. I loved commuting with her, she had an incredible wit and a great sense of humour. She was also probably the smartest and most gifted person in the class. We were completing our Master's degrees while we working full time. Cindy was an invaluable help to me when I was feeling overwhelmed as she was encouraging, positive and supportive. I have so many great memories as I'm sure her family does. She was just a great person.

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever.

Cindy was a beautiful person. I was remembering when you came skating with our family on Boxing Day. I also remember meeting Cindy on the walking path on your farm. She was a strong caring person and contributed much to her family and her occupation.. I must apologize that we missed the funeral. I only found out at Church on the 12th. Please know you are all in my prayers. Rest in Peace Cindy.

Report

Bert (Robert Sealy) posted a condolence

Saturday, November 11, 2023

During my teen years, I would often travel to London, ON to visit Aunt Pat on the train. Aunt Cindy would often be there for part of those visits but on one occasion, instead of riding the train Aunt Cindy and I drove together. Upon transferring cars in Essex, Aunt Cindy immediately started asking how I have been doing and what’s been happening in my life. For the first few of these questions, I gave the typical teenager answer of “fine” or “yes” or “no”. It didn’t take too many of these answers for Aunt Cindy to say “what is going on with the one word answer s*%#”? Well, from then on we talked about all sorts of things and I had a great time riding with her to Aunt Pat’s. I will miss Aunt Cindy and think of her glowing smile often. My thoughts will be with Uncle Dave, Mathew, Laura and Adam and hope they know how sorry I am for our loss!

Cindy and I became friends while working at Car Barn Tavern, then again a few years later at Wheatley Prov Park where we would get giggling when trying to be professional with our customers. I never knew when she was going to drop by my house and say "lets go for coffee, lets go for lunch" but it was always an enjoyable visit with a lot of laughs. Sometimes we'd go for an evening walk and get ice cream. I miss those days with her but am so grateful for the memories. Thinking of you Dave and family.

I had the privilege of growing up down the street from Cindy. I went to Wheatley Public School with Cindy from Kindergarten through Grade 8. Janice Whaley, Cindy and I walked back snd forth to school together every day for 9 years. Back then there were lots of kids in our neighborhood and we spent countless hours playing outside. I have very fond childhood memories because Cindy was part of them.

Nancy,Jean,Pat, and I as well as our families were all deeply saddened on receiving the news that Cindy passed away early Thursday morning. Cindy was always quick to smile on seeing any of us at any time for any occasion. Her laugh was infectious and usually inspired others to join her and lift the hearts of all those around her. When we were growing up her mischevious nature would result in many water fights involving not only our family but the neighbours as well. Adults and kids were often the victims of getting doused by a glass or bucket of water or squirted with the garden hose. If you were distracted and not paying attention on a hot summer’s day Cindy saw you as an easy victim and the water fight was on. Anyone who was nearby was enventually drawn into the action willingly or not. When she had a person cornered there was never any mercy shown and a good soaking was guaranteed. During the years Cindy and Pat lived with Aline and I, my long underwear would go missing for days at a time. I couldn’t find them in my dresser, in the laundry, or anywhere. I would ask Cindy if she knew where they were . She would look me right in the eye and say she would keep a look out for them knowing all along she had them on. Of course I found this out a long time after the fact. That is why I got her a pair for a wedding gift and made a point of giving them to her publicly during the reception. Was she embarassed? NO, She laughed loudly and then said she could really use them. At the end of Cindy and Dave’s wedding they both went outside the church expecting to go for pictures but Dave’s uncle pulled up in an old farm wagon and tractor. On the wagon were 2 old straight back chairs and the wagon was decorated with a just maried sign and some tin cans. His uncle then drove them uptown through the four corners of Tilbury. Cindy was a good sport through it all. Along with being good natured Cindy could be determined and show a lot of grit when she needed to. She demonstrated this in pusuing her education first getting her degree and then her masters in social work. If I ever called with a problem. Cindy would help. Cindy was a GOOD person and a GOOD human being. I am going to spend the rest of my life missing her but when I look at her picture I will always think back to the good times and the good memories and smile because if Cindy was standing beside me that is what she would want me to do. Love Bob

I have loved Cindy my whole life. We shared a bed together when we were really young. Then we shared bunk beds. Then we shared a bedroom. We were the Silly Sealy Sisters at Snider’s restaurant in Wheatley. Cindy started out at Lakehead University but she transferred to the University of Windsor Social work program and Cindy was welcomed and partied with my friends. I knew her friends. We travelled together (California, Texas, and Australia). I was Cindy’s maid of honour at her wedding and she was Matron of Honour at mine. I was soon to visit with the birth of Adam, Laura, and Matthew and Cindy came to see Eliza right away and Leonie. I helped Cindy with her wonderful Master’s thesis on the stresses that farm women experience. She listened to me whine about my PhD. She was so proud of being a teacher. I have been truly blessed to have Cindy as my sister and if I had one more wish, I wish I could have had more time with her. I have fully loved Cindy her whole life ❤️.

I remember Dave introducing me to Cindy some 40 plus years ago and thinking what a lovely lady. Later I discovered that she possessed an even more generous, kind and welcoming heart. Cindy always greeted everyone with a warm smile and took genuine interest in whomever she was talking with. Young and old alike were always treated with consideration and respect. Cindy always made you feel like an old friend. She was a loving wife to Dave and dedicated mother who cherished her children. We have lost a truly beautiful person and the world needs more people like her to make the world a better place.

I met Cindy while working for Essex County Social Services in 1981-quickly becoming good friends not just coworkers. Cindy was an intelligent, genuinely kind, caring and authentic person who had a great sense of humour. She was quick to smile and make you feel at ease, taking others needs into consideration. We shared many dinners over the years, Wanda, Wendy, Cindy and I laughing and supporting each other through life’s ups and downs. It is with a heavy heart, dear friend, that I have had to say goodbye. It has been one of life’s privileges to call you friend. My thoughts, sympathy and love to your beautiful family

I worked with Cindy at Social Services for awhile until she decided to go into teaching. I remember being upset for losing Cindy but she had a new interest. I always kept in touch with Cindy for many years. I will miss a wonderful friend. Wanda Rosicki

Though I never met Cindy, I had glimpses of her in her daughter Laura. I am proud to call Laura my daughter in law, partner to my son Luc, whose life has been enriched by Laura. As a member of our family, Laura, we promise to help you heal, and I want to hear all your cherished memories of your mom. To Laura's dad, David, and brothers, the Lapointe family sends sincere condolences as you mourn the death of Cindy.
