Cynthia "Cindy" Dianne Wilson

February 5th, 1949 ~ May 21st, 2014

It is my unfortunate duty to inform you that Cynthia (Cindy) Wilson passed away on Wednesday, May 21, 2014 at the age of 65 years.  We are saddened by the loss, but are also overwhelmed with the love and support that her family and peers enthusiastically give.  As a family, we would like to thank you, Cindy, for being so kind and giving of your time and honest attention.  She cared so deeply about her students, both past and present, as well as enjoyed sharing in the hardships and triumphs with co-workers.  Her humour was often coloured with the seasoning that one obtains from spending one’s time with twelve year olds (no offense kids), and her light heart was always welcome in a conversation.  She fulfilled her role as daughter, a mother, an aunt, a wife, an educator, a true friend, and a kind retreat.  Cindy is survived by her mother Helen Kosteniuk, and leaves behind her brothers Randy, Kevin, and Phil Avram.  Cindy has three children Jennifer, Todd, and Mark Wilson, and grandchildren as well.  Prayers will be held on Sunday, May 25, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. in St. George Orthodox Cathedral, 2005 Edgar St., Regina, SK.  Funeral Service will be held on Monday, May 26, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. in St. George Orthodox Cathedral with Fr. Cosmin Sicoe officiating.  Interment in Lumsden Cemetery.  Donations in Cindy’s memory may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Sask. 279 - 3rd Ave N., Saskatoon, Saskatchewan S7K 2H8.

My deepest condolences as her beautiful nature and kindness has only touched the hearts of the whole community

Jennifer, Todd and Mark, I feel very fortunate to have come to know your mother. Every time I saw her we always had a long conversation about a variety of topics ranging from what you were doing to the books we were reading. She was a kind, compassionate, thoughtful woman and she will be missed by many. I know it is cliche, but your memories of her will help you as you deal with this loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Jen, Todd and Mark, Words cannot express the sadness I feel for the loss of this lovely lady. Cindy was the epitome of love and life and so many have lost a wonderful friend, teacher and mentor. Nothing prepares us for the loss of our mother but the knowledge of her everlasting love for you, her children, will help you through this next while. When your sadness becomes overwhelming take out the memories you have held safe in your heart and be consoled by the loving times you spent with your Mom. She will with you forever.

To all family - I am so truly sorry for your great loss. When I founds out in church this morning, my jaw dropped open. I just saw Cindy the previous weekend, spoke to her and she was her normal happy, sweet as always self. I go a long ways back in church with Cindy, we had Father George, Protessa Paula and our kids were young and in Sunday School. My thoughts go to your family through these difficult times. Amen

May God grant you the strength and courage to endure the pain you are feeling now And may His compassion comfort you during this time of sorrow Our thoughts and prayers are with you

Jen, Mark and Todd: So sorry for your sudden loss of your Mom. Jen and I were just confirming Cindy's retirement so we could have a visit. I so wanted to talk to your Mom about our Romanian heritage here in Canada. It was so on my list of things to do this June. Never wait for those opportunities because you never know when they will be lost. Hugs your Cousin Karen from the Vatamaniuk / Zaremba side

Jennifer, Mark and Todd - I am so sorry to hear about your mom. She was one of the kindest people I have ever met. I will always remember all the help she provided to the Romanian Dance group. She always had a smile on her face. She will always be in our hearts and prayers along with all of you. God bless!

Our love, thoughts & prayers are with Jennifer, Todd, Mark and all of Cindy's family & friends. Cindy was a lovely lady with a kind & loving soul. May all your wonderful memories bring you peace and comfort. Judy & Dave Quick & Family

Dear Family, I was so very shocked and saddened to hear of Cindy's passing. While I hadn't seen her in years, I've always smiled when I think of her and wonder how she's doing. She took over my class at Coronation Park School in 1976, when I went on sick leave. We'd see each other now and again, at conventions and such, but our paths really crossed again in 1994 when we bumped into each other at the U of R, both of us getting our degrees. About four of us, all around the same age, took our classes together and had such a blast! Such fun, these 'old ladies,' amidst the young students at the University. Cherished memories. And now, the unthinkable. I am so very, very sorry for your loss. It just doesn't seem fair at all. I hope you know what an incredibly special woman Cindy was.... I am sure you do. Her warmth, caring, generosity and humour will be sorely missed. With great love and sympathy, Roberta Nichol

Sorry to hear about the passing of your Mom, Todd. My thoughts go out to you and your family. "Rosey"
