Cyndie K. Weis
Entered into Eternal life on Saturday, April 18, 2020, age 66. Proud mom of Adrian (Omari), Ayla (David), and Alex. Loving sister of Diana and the late Jeff. Sister-in-law of Pam. Cherished aunt of Heather (Jeff) and Andrew (Theresa), whose children include Kate, Elise, and A.J. Further survived by other family members and friends.
Cyndie often had several employment opportunities. Her early career was in social work and she passionately worked, wrote, and created projects centered around adoption-related issues. For many years she also worked as a university teacher in continuing education classes. If the school had a C in its name, she probably taught there.
Cyndie was an accomplished writer and enjoyed writing short stories and publishing articles on adoption, her faith, and parenting. She enjoyed going to conferences across the state and visiting old friends. She was creative, brilliant, and always had a project.
People may recall that she bred lovebirds and carried them with her after they hatched. Cyndie was also involved in the local PFLAG chapter and enjoyed writing articles for their newsletter. She loved to assist with Alex’s theater and musical endeavors, garden, and sew (many of her and her children’s outfits were her own creations).
In her later years, she was often spotted swimming at the local pool. She spent many happy years with her dog, Jewel, by her side.
Thank you to the caring staff of The Auberge (Silverado) in Menomonee Falls. She remained extremely independent, even in her declining year of health issues.
Due to the country’s health crisis, a celebration of Life will be held privately. Burial in Wisconsin Memorial Park.

RIP Cyndie. Thoughts and prayers to your family
Melodee L. Bast
My sincere condolences to Cyndie's family. I met Cyndie back at Edison (1966) and we instantly became good friends; along with Debbie Kuehling. Both girls were excellent sewers and they inspired me to learn how to sew. We had many slumber parties and we would PROWL Hampton and Villard looking for FUN!!!! We drifted apart when we attended Custer but did stay in touch. We did reunite when the planning for the 40th reunion began and she graciously joined our committee. We talked about all the fun we had at EdisonAND the bunny that Ann Wentworth and myself got her for her birthday!!!! Great times and so many great memeries.
REST IN HEAVEN SWEET CYNDIE and may GOD comfort her family and friends.

Cyndie was one of the nicest people I've ever known. She was also one of the smartest people I know. She had a lot of knowledge in so many areas, that I found her fascinating. I remember that she and Debbie Kuehling started eating "low carb" before it became a fitness trend, and it was because she had researched healthy lifestyle way back when. I do remember her sewing projects, as Melodee mentioned, and I'm also not surprised to hear that she became a writer. She was good at so many things. May God bless her family, and all of you who were close to her. I will miss her sweet smile, and her gentle spirit.

Cyndie and I were in Niadas together. My sister who lives in the Milwaukee area met up with her at the pool many times. And Cyndie would still do her ballet leg! The world has lost a gentle soul.
