Cynthia Aucoin

Cynthia Ann "Cindy" Aucoin, wife, mother, nana, sister, aunt and friend, age 62, resident of Greenwell Springs, Louisiana, passed away on Monday, January 18, 2016.

Cindy was an office manager for a dental office for 20 years before leaving her job to be full-time caregiver to her husband of 39 years, Gary Aucoin. Cindy was a giver. From a very young age she was like a second mother to her siblings and this gave her great practice to be an amazing mother to her two kids, Ryan and Layni. When you saw Cindy, you were filled with joy because she always had a contagious smile on her face and laughter that lit up the room. If you knew Cindy you knew she loved Jesus, the beach and adored spending time with her kids and grandkids. Her love was genuine and she held fast to the good in life. She loved with great affection. She honored those around her with great zeal, and served the Lord as she served others. She found joy in the hope of tomorrow and was patient and prayerful through many trials. She always gave of her time, talent and treasure to those around her, exemplifying the marks of a true Christian as is laid out in the book of Romans 12:9-12.

Cindy loved her family more than anything, and is survived by her husband of 39 years, Gary Aucoin; son, Ryan Aucoin and wife Beth; daughter, Layni Reynerson and husband Nathan; five grandchildren, Kinlee Aucoin, Miriam Reynerson, Addiella Reynerson, Ava Aucoin, and Selah Reynerson; three sisters, Linda Smith, Beth Orillion and husband Brent, Karen Russell and husband Donald; and three brothers, Butch Calamia, Mike Calamia and wife Vickie, Keith Calamia and wife Diana. She also welcomed Cliff Ancelet into the family as a fourth brother and has many nieces and nephews that will miss her greatly.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Louis and Frances Calamia; brother-in-law, J.B. Smith; and grandson, Tyler Kyzar.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to a long term care fund for Gary Aucoin.
