January 4, 1954 - August 19, 2024

In loving memory ~

Cindy Dayneswood made her final transition in the early hours of August 19th, 2024, after a long & courageous battle with cancer.

Cindy is known for her kind, caring & humorous personality whose life was filled with her love & devotion to God, her family & friends. She had a tremendous passion for the service towards others & always made the time to assist when needed. Most of all she will be remembered for her gift of listening & understanding other perspectives without judgement or recrimination.

Cindy is survived by her loving husband Ian, her four children Rachel, Hannah, Daniel & Naomi and their spouses, her ten grandchildren, Alice, Toby, Nico, Aidan. Isaiah, Oliver, Shana, Mathias, Ezra, Asher & her sister Penny Shillingford. Cindy was an integral part of her family's lives & although those close to her knew the inevitable outcome of her illness, her passing still remains an unbelievable shock! She & her husband had recently moved to the Comox Valley & had many plans for exploring Vancouver Island, meeting new friends, welcoming out of town guests, & happily residing in their new home.

Cindy was born on January 4th, 1954 in Whitehorse, Yukon to Gordon & Blanche McIntyre & lived there until her family permanently moved to Vancouver in 1959 when Cindy was just 5 . years of age. There she attended various elementary schools & graduated from Burnaby Central High School in 1971. Soon after she follower her inherent compassionate nature & attained her license as a Practical Nurse (LPN) at Vancouver General Hospital. She then went on holiday to England & decided to stay on to enter the Registered Nurses training program offered at St. Richard's General Hospital in Chichester. It was there she met her future husband Ian & after she graduated they wed & had four children, all born in Sussex, England.

After 14 years Cindy returned to Canada with her family in 1988 & resided in 91大黄鸭, BC where she busily continued to raise her children as well as contribute to her community & Church. On March 5, 2002 she was ordained Reverend Cindy Dayneswood under the spiritual leadership of the 91大黄鸭 Christian Center. At last she had successfully achieved both of her early childhood goals of becoming a medical professional and a church pastor.

After fifteen years in the Okanagan, Cindy & Ian relocated to Gibsons BC on the Sunshine Coast where they enjoyed life by the sea until they decided to downsize & move to Comox Valley in 2021. Cindy loved music, the theatre, liked to write short stories, skits (the sillier the better), plan events, spend time with her beloved grand-children, travelling with Ian & was happiest at home in her kitchen baking. We shall miss her treats, her creative energy, her talent for finding joy in absurdity & her love of the simple pleasure in life.

Death ends a life, not a relationship. All the love you

created is still there. All the memories are still there,

You live on - in the hearts of everyone you have

touched & nurtured while you were here. - Mitch Albom
