CYNTHIA WOODS MITCHELL

Cynthia Mitchell passed away just after Christmas at her home at The Woodlands. She was 87 and had suffered from the ravages of Alzheimer's disease for about ten years.

Her funeral was held at Trinity Episcopal Church in Galveston, the church she and her family had attended fifty years earlier when they lived on the Island. Her ten children were there to celebrate her life as was her husband, George Mitchell, 90. And the church was packed with friends.

Another lifelong friend, Trish Clason, sent me one of the printed programs and told me about the service.

The program shows that five people, four of them family members, eulogized her. And I know they did a great job, doing their best to remind all present of how remarkable Mrs. Mitchell was.

But the one who captured and told it all was the person who thought printing this picture of Mrs. Mitchell on the program would be a worthy contribution to her last rite. For me, this is what said it all. It left me to ponder with a smile our many year friendship.
