My interest in CV Hospice Society began at inception. I was an elected local government person when the society was born. I have watched the growth along with the challenges and am now in a position to step up and support the initiative as it matures. Along with local government and governance experience, I have worked on National and Provincial teams, have experience working and living in 3 Territories and 4 Provinces, and have lived in the Valley for 20 years. I am excited to be invited to be a part of the Director Team.

Cindy recently attended Hospice training for End of Life Visitors , the course and knowledge she gained about the free services provided by Hospice inspired her to get involved and help more, having learned the important work Hospice Volunteers do in supporting those at end of life or going through bereavement.

Cindy’s free time is all about the outdoors. Winter means heading out to different lakes for snowmobiling and ice fishing followed by a fire and roasting hot dogs. Summer rolls around and it’s camping, quadding and fishing, always with a fire and hot dogs.

Crafting is a passion and her craft room has turned into two rooms. She has a laser engraver and creates earrings, ornaments, and boxes. It’s her happy place and a fantastic way to unwind. She also enjoys photography, making videos and Tik Tok.
