Leave a tribute for Cindy Pendleton.
Cindy was such a beautiful person inside and out. She lived her testimony and we were blessed to know her. Our heartfelt prayer go out to Terry,Shawn& Seth and all the family.
I was involved in making a prayer quilt a few years ago and recognized her as a “warrior.” She had a great attitude and embraced life. I am so sad to hear that it ended so abruptly, however I am confident that she is dwelling in comfort and peace. Condolences to her family🙏
I am so saddened to here of Mrs Pendleton’s passing. She was always so pleasant and my grandchildren enjoyed having her as their librarian at Mtn View. Praying for her family. RIP Sharlene Hipple
