In loving memory of Cynthia Joan Harris who sadly passed away on 30th September 2017 aged 76 years. Born in Plymouth to George and Mable Bunt on February 11th, 1941. She graduated from Plymouth School for girls and entered the workforce. She had a love of dancing and soon met Raymond Harris. They were soon engaged and married on December 24th, 1960.
Cynthia had 4 children, the eldest Fiona, then Stephen, Philip and Kirsty. She had 6 grand children, Andrew, Ray, Hazel, Katy, Elena and Peter and 5 great grand children: Ajay, Tommy, Amelia, Alfie and Riley. Her family was a great source of pride and she loved to spend time with each of them.
Cynthia and Ray moved across the country as Ray's profession led them to Bodmin, Doncaster, Walsall, Burton-on-Trent, Hull and Nottingham. In 1980 they purchased the Welbeck Newsbar in Hucknall and became newsagents. After a period of ill health, Ray passed away in 2000. They had been married for almost 40 years. Cynthia continued to manage the store.
Cynthia had many interests. She was an active member of the church and the community participating in all kinds of events for charity. She loved to play games, especially scrabble. She won more games than she lost using words many of us never knew existed.
Her greatest joy was spending time with her extended family. Holidays abroad or simply an afternoon at the park with the great grand kids, she loved those times.
Cynthia's spirit and values will live on in each of those she touched. She will be sorely missed.
