Cyndi loved to cook, bird watch, garden, watch the fish in the koi pond, and she loved her dogs.
She is survived by her loving husband of forty years, Eugene “Gene” Lightfoot of the home; her two sons, Stephen Lightfoot and wife Amy of Springdale, and Mitch Lightfoot of Springdale; her sister, Holly Chamlee of Springdale; her two granddaughters, Railey Whitten and Mila Kay Lightfoot; and her daughter-in-love, Maddy Marcum.
