She has three grandchildren that attend Santa Fe ISD and one grandchild that graduated from there and a daughter-in-law Jennifer that also works for Santa Fe ISD.  As such, the community of Santa Fe is a large part of her family’s lives. She worked at the school not out of necessity but for the love of teaching and helping others. To know Cynthia, was to know a person who lived to help others. The tragic school shooting in May cut her life short.
