Memories of Sister Cindy Nash.

[larrylyates]

I am relatively new to AFF, as most of you know. We live in Ohio, but are originally from Texas. Cindy and I shared a number of times over our love of Galveston and my own past as a Fire Fighter. We mourned together a bit. But mostly what I remember and respect the most today is the way in which she would step in with a kind and gentle word of correction when some of my exchanges were getting a little too heated. It never made you feel chastized, just acutely aware of the need to shut up. She always brought an awareness of the importance of love.

Enjoy your new found freedom in the Lord, my friend. I regret not having the time to have known you better.

Just a little example of how she would post, with pride, about the great state of Texas!! I will miss that so much!!!!

I really try to like everyone, but you know there is this one little guy here that just, I don't know. He's like this extra kid that I didn't even have, and he just seems to keep tugging at my heart. Anyway I like most of you, but Daniel Alicea, I love you. And it is my fervent prayer that you run this race with grace, and show mercy to others."

This is Cindy - - she loved without walls.

I lost a friend today, a friend I never met in person, yet grew on me as much as any I have met in person. I spent the day avoiding these threads as every time I started to read them I'd start to cry.

Cindy was a special person to me. She was so nice and easy to get along with. You all know how the forum won't be the same without her but I've come to greatly appreciate her as a member of the Admin team too. We won't be the same. I'm sad.

I would have sworn that Cindy was on FCF and NFCF too, and I guess she was on neither one! It seems like she's been a part of us forever. It hurts me to know that she must have been suffering and never told us, but she sure was faithful to pray for each of us when we needed anything. I will miss her greatly!

Great expression Praxeas. I wonder why do we wait until someone is dead to say all the good things to them. (I'm not addressing this to you, Prax....I'm talking to myself) I'm mad at myself. This came to me recently at the passing of a country music star, George Jones. People came out of the wood work, from all genres, saying George Jones had the greatest voice, (and he was good), of all times. I wonder how many people told him that before he died.

God help me to say the things that I need to say, while I can look you in the eye or at least while you can still understand me. God help us get in the "florist business" and pass out some roses to the living. If I could, I'd give Cindy a "huge bouquet" of roses so that she could smell them. So, while I'm at it, let me get started now. I enjoy reading your posts. Don't always agree but am amazed at your knowledge and learning. Enjoy reading after you. Have a good evening now.

God bless all.
