In Memory of Cindy Lou: Help Her Loved Ones

Cindy Lou Gibbs was born November 26, 1980 in Lufkin, Texas. Cindy and her family moved to the Crocker, Missouri area where she grew up and graduated from Crocker High School with the class of 1999.

Cindy was a very creative person and created her own business called Cindy Lou & The Painting Crew. She worked in construction doing painting and carpentry work. She loved to make things look fresh and new.

She loved helping people create their dream homes with an affordable budget, even if that meant her business had to suffer a little.

Some of her favorite things: traveling, hiking, any beach with an ocean view, giving to charity.

She was more adventurous than anyone I’ve ever known. Constantly encouraged her boys to try new adventures and to always stand up for themselves.

She was our guide through life, our personal counselor, our boss, our best friend, our best supporter and most encouraging motivator.

It feels like the energy has been sucked from our home and our lives.

In her spare time she enjoyed watching movies and was very adventurous. She loved to hike, travel and skydive. Cindy was very much into taking care of herself and believed deeply in self-healing and meditation.

Cindy was united in marriage to Nicholas Gibbs on September 17, 2016 in Springfield Missouri. They shared over 8 years together and at the time of their union two families joined to include two children, Cody and Benjamin.

Cindy was a very giving person and every year she did a big, good deed for a family member or friend. She enjoyed helping others and was always looking for the next big project to do for them.

Cindy passed away Tuesday, November 5, 2024 at the age of 43. She will be sadly missed but fondly remembered by all those that knew and loved her.

Cindy Lou leaves to cherish her memory; her husband Nicholas Gibbs of the home; two children: Cody Roberts and Benjamin Griffin both of Waynesville Missouri, one brother Mike Allen of Crocker Missouri, niece Zoie Helton and other relatives and friends.

Even though she is gone from our sight, Cindy’s giving and loving spirit will live on in our hearts forever.

We appreciate all the emotional support we have received during this tragic time, and would greatly appreciate help with this also if you are able.

Thank you so much,

Nicholas Gibbs
