My beautiful niece, Cindy Newhall Weyant, died in her sleep Tuesday night. How could such a lovely light go out?
She was 51 years old and had suffered with multiple sclerosis for much of her adult life. She leaves behind three wonderful sons, a devoted husband, a mother, a father, and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who will miss her deeply.

Thank you for sharing Barbara.
Given how Cindy lived her life, very outward, and out loud in a positive, perpetual upbeat and resilient manner, enjoying each moment whether it was family life, her passion of being a thespian and even her joy of vacations, I am glad I happened by and got to glean her life, albeit from afar and online.
The above attributes will be her legacy, and also a lesson for everyone, whether afflicted with an ailment or not. The importance of being happy, thankful and living in each moment largely as it happens. Part of her light is gone, but the rest is in her legacy she left. Her family is in my prayers tonight.
