Obituary of Cindy Ellen Bird

On June 18th, 2025, after a long fight with COPD, Cindy Bird, 60, passed away suddenly at St. Catharines General Hospital. Cindy was a beloved mother, a cherished daughter, a devoted sister, and a loyal friend. Her life was a testament to love, resilience, and kindness.
