Cindy was born June 2, 1957 in Chicago, the daughter of Joseph and Geraldine (Knapczyk) Lent. She married Carl Brittingham on December 28, 1984 in Wyoming, Illinois; he survives.
Also surviving are her daughter, Heather Brittingham (Wesley Morrissey) of Laura; sons, Jason Lent of Las Vegas, Nevada (Krista Lent) of Dunlap, and Carl (Amanda) Brittingham of Wyoming; six grandchildren, Finnley and Brenley Morrissey, Logan, Brayden and Emma Lent and Sydney Brittingham; two sisters, Debby Lent and Kathy (Mike) Kuss both of Adams-Friendship, Wisconsin; two nephews, Jake Vana and Justin Lent; and niece, Alyssa Kuss.

Cindy was the founder, owner and operator of Quality Cable and Components in Wyoming, which she started in 1994. She loved spending time with her grandchildren, family, and friends. Cindy enjoyed making memories, traveling with her husband and was passionate about giving back to others. A true inspiration of strength and beauty, inside and out. Cindy was full of life, love and happiness. Many will say, they have never met a kinder, more generous soul. She will be forever in our hearts.
