[Nfbv-announce] Passing of Cynthia Cross

[Michael Kasey]

My Federation Family,

 

I am sad to report of the death of Cynthia Cross.  She died at Mary
Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg yesterday at about 6:30 pm

Cynthia fought a short battle with cancer.  Her family will have funeral
services privately.  Cynthia was a long time member of the historic
Fredericksburg Area Chapter of the NFB of Virginia and this past year served
as Chapter, Secretary, reading in Braille the meeting minutes at our last
meeting.  Many of us knew her as close friends and will miss her deeply.
Please keep her family in your prayers.  

Thank you,

Michael

 

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.
