    Notes:

    Cynthia - known to all as Cindy - grew up in Wakefield, Virginia with her Mom, Dad
    and three sisters. Her Dad worked very hard in the 1950's and 60's to raise four girls!
    Cindy was the third of the girls having two sisters 2 and 3 years older and one, 10 years
    younger. She remembers her Dad going to get the groceries and always bringing back a bag of penny candy for them. Her dad wanted a boy very much and Cindy was the closest that he came to getting one. She remembers going to work sometimes with him as a carpenter and fishing with him which was one of his favorite pastimes. Her dad's friends and many in Wakefield called Cindy "Little Brock". (Brock being her Dad's nickname) She also remembers that her dad often MADE the three older girls go out to clean fish. He could gut them as fast as three girls could clean them! One other job that they would always groan at was unloading wood that he would bring home for their wood stove. As a young girl she was quiet in her ways. She walked to the Wakefield Christian Church which was just about three doors from their home each Sunday and remembers some of the songs that she learned as a young child there. Cindy remembers the Church Revival that she joined her two older sisters and first cousin at the front of the Church to ask Jesus to come into her life and also remembers her baptism and the dress that she wore. She was 11 at this time. Other childhood memories are roller skating and bicycling all over town, Sunday School picnics at Moore's Lake, and summer Vacation Bible Schools.
