Cynthia Ferrell
October 24, 1947 — November 17, 2019
Cynthia Diane (Simmons) Ferrell, 72, of Brunswick, Maryland, passed from this life on Sunday, November 17, 2019 at home. Her loved ones knew her as Cindy.
Born on October 24, 1947, in Frederick, MD, she was the daughter of Charles William Simmons and Elizabeth (Baer) Simmons. The family lived in Ijamsville, MD.
Cindy loved children. She operated a home daycare for many years through which she impacted the lives of dozens of children - with whom she maintained life-long relationships. In her spare time she enjoyed playing bingo, playing slots, crocheting, crafting, and sharing her love through hosting friends and family at her kitchen table. No one ever left her home hungry, without many laughs, or unloved. She had quite the green thumb as well, and proudly maintained one of the most magnificent flower gardens in Brunswick.
She is survived by her loving and devoted husband, William Leon Ferrell, Jr.; children, Daniel William Ferrell and wife Missy, Crystal Mae Ferrell and fiancée Sheldon Eastham, Billy Joe Ferrell and wife Stephanie; grandchildren, Novalee Deimler, Julia Ferrell, William Ferrell, Bethany Payne, Elizabeth Ferrell, Rebecca Ferrell, Carly Eastham, Bryant Payne, Danielle Ferrell and Noel Eastham; and her siblings, Charles Simmons, Marie Hawkins, Vivian Poole and Lester Simmons. She is also survived by numerous nieces and nephews and her special friend, Karen Griner.
In addition to her parents, Cindy was preceded in death by two sisters, Ida Stillions and Patsy Federline, and nephew, Joe Stillions.
