May 21, 2010 3:38 PM Dear Rasaki, Al and family: As your Teacher in the SEDOL Transition Program at the Seymour Site in Grayslake, I was privileged to interact with your mother (Cyndy) in many settings, from meetings to casual conversations; each time, I valued how she was a tireless advocate for anyone with special needs; how she was such a clear communicator in meetings; and how, no matter what the setting, she always made me laugh :). I will miss her.

May 21, 2010 3:23 PM Rasaki, Mr. Vandrush; I want to tell you how cool it was that your mom (Cyndy) would always come into our chat room at One Geek Radio and was always there to request a song!! I also liked how she always helped you with your CLC work. She was a great lady and I will miss her.

May 20, 2010 8:25 PM Dear Jenny & the Vandrush Family, I am so saddened to hear about your mom's passing. She was such an inspirational person and you all must be so proud of not only her amazing accomplishments but ALL the lives she had touched in all the years she taught in and around Antioch. There are so many art projects I remember from the Grass Lake School days that I now do with my children. Needless to say she was very inspirational to me as I still, to this day love art. May the memories of her legacy comfort you all in your time of sorrow. My deepest sympathies, Michele (Skrypt) Torkilsen & Family

Al and Rasaki,
ReplyDeleteCyndy's passing in a loss to so many. I had the privilege to have several discussions with all of you. Your story of how you all became a family is truly a story of love. She lived her life with focus and determination and nothing got in her way. She was a strong yet loving woman and I will always remember her that way. She (and Al) brought us Rasaki and I will always be grateful to her for that blessing.
You are in my thoughts and prayers. She is with you always now that she is not bound by body.
