Obituary of Cynthia Lee Ward
Please share a memory of Cynthia to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Cynthia "Cyndee" Ward (nee Daniels) died peacefully, surrounded by her family on June 19th, 2024, after courageously battling appendiceal cancer for more than three years. She was 55 years old.
Born to parents Doris Daniels (nee Jaques) and Herman Daniels, Jr., she was raised in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ. She attended elementary and secondary schools there, making many lifelong friends. She went on to study at Rutgers University, earning her BA then earning her MBA at Monmouth University some years later. Cyndee met her soulmate, John, and relocated to Yardley, PA. They wed in 2000 and had two amazing children, Ryan (age 21) and Reagan (age 19). Cyndee retired from her career at Aetna in 2023, having worked in the industry for 26 years. In her free time, she supported all her children's youth activities & sports, various volunteer activities with swimming and Girl Scouts and enjoyed dumpster diving for items to repurpose with John's help. She enjoyed walks with her pup Guinness and spending time at the beach or at the lake in Maine.
Cyndee was predeceased by her grandparents Edna & Bill Jaques and Harriet & Herman Daniels, Sr., all of whom she adored. She is survived by her loving husband John, children Ryan & Reagan, her mother Doris and her life partner Paul Stumpf, Father Herman Daniels, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and a strong circle of friends who lent their support during her illness.
The funeral service will be held at the Yardley United Methodist Church on Tuesday, June 25th, 2024 at 7:00pm. Relatives and friends may visit with the family from 5:30pm to 7:00pm at the church.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Cyndee's memory to any of the organizations she felt passionate about (listed below) or one of your choosing. Above all else, DO GOOD THINGS to honor her memory.
Arrangements are under the care of the FitzGerald-Sommer Funeral Home 17 S. Delaware Avenue Yardley, PA 19067. Condolences for the family can be left at www.fitzgeraldsommerfuneralhome.com.
"A Letter From Heaven"
When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today;
While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me as I love you;
And each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too.
When tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart;
For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.
- Alena Hakala Meadows
