Cyndi was born in Chicago 71 years ago to John and Helen Owczarski. She married her beloved husband Frank in 1972 and moved to Streamwood where they shared in each others lives for the next 51 years until her death on July 1.

Cyndi was an amazingly strong woman and just a good kind person to all who knew her. A great personality that enjoyed life. But, after fighting so hard against the many maladies thrown her way there was nothing left but to succumb to them.

She attended St. Veronica grammar school, graduated from St. Viator grammar school and graduated from Alvernia High School in 1970. In her teen years she worked at various movie theaters along State St. and Hecks Catering, then later the American Medical Association and finally, Hallicrafters, now Grumann-Douglas in Rolling Meadows.

In lieu of flowers, Cyndi believed in service animals, whether dogs or even horses, that can bring some joy and comfort to those that are disabled. Please support an organization that does this hard and rewarding work with your donation. Information (630) 289-8054.
