Hello,

I'm Cynthia's sister, Pamela Zipfel, and on behalf of my sister, as several people have inboxed me to help financially with the days ahead, I found it in the best interest to go ahead and create this.

My sister was definitely one of a kind. She was beautiful, sassy, and sweet. She told me the truth whether I wanted to hear it or not. We weren't always close growing up, but in our adult years, we grew very close.

Unfortunately, her life was cut short on September 27th by someone who she cared deeply for. Please, if you find yourself in a domestic abusive situation, please reach out. There are so many options and so much help. You are never alone.

If you find it in your heart that you wish to donate, as stubborn as she is and knowing she wouldn't be happy about this, know that we are extremely grateful for the outpouring support and the kind words that we have received during this difficult time.
