Cindy Ruth Cannon

Cindy R. Cannon, BSN, RN, MS, OSH; Forever Young, Originally from the hamlet of Murray however, no stranger to the booming metropolis of Owensboro either, checked-out Tuesday morning at the Crash Pad in Philpot. She came into to this world on November the 5th (a great day!) She graduated, not notably, from Murray High only to turn around and score the Dean's List multiple times on her way to multiple degrees at Murray State. She enjoyed snipe-hunting, under-water basket weaving and the collecting of animated Christmas cards. And as a founding member of the SAPS sorority against pushy sisters she made it her life's mission to encourage diffidency among family members of the female persuasion. Orchestrating her arrival in the Celestial Digs above are her brother/side-kick Johnny P. and the Parental Units; Big John and the Lady J.

The sad sacks she left behind to re-organize the deck chairs on the Titanic include but are not limited to; her older, wiser, yet still unheralded, darling sister Portia Chinn, maritally adopted brother Big D (a favorite target for her boundless wit & wisdom), her effusive, gregarious bundle of activity neatly contained in a tiny package, nephew Kyle, the shy, withdrawn, repressed, easily intimidated and always pristine niece Maryl, the ever inspired, focused, techno guru, maritally adopted nephew Tim, and their jolly brood, Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Her going-away parties will be held at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory in Owensboro, KY on Saturday, October 24 from 10 a.m. until 12 pm with a final farewell to follow at Noon at the funeral home and in Murray, KY at Murray Memorial Gardens on Sunday, October 25 from 12 p.m. until 3 p.m.

So what we're getting to here is:
Cindy R. Cannon, 52, of Murray and Owensboro, KY died Tuesday morning at the residence of her sister. Visitation and a memorial service will be held at Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory in Owensboro on Saturday October 24th from 10 a.m. -12 p.m. with service to follow at 12 p.m. A visitation will be held in Murray on Sunday October 25th at Murray Memorial Gardens from 12-3pm.

(Now c'mon y'all which one do you think is Cindy-approved? The colorful depiction of what really was orrrr the life-draining conveyance of facts?)

Instead of flowers our girl would prefer you send donations to the American Cancer Society or Hospice of Western Kentucky.
