Born on April 21, 1959, in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to her loving parents Bruce & LaNell Gaylor, Cynthia lived a life filled with love, laughter, and grace. She was a woman of deep faith, holding a close personal relationship with God and was a proud member of New Salam Baptist Church for the past eight years. Her kind spirit and joyful heart were evident in every room she entered, and her presence brought comfort and light to all who knew her. Cynthia had a zest for life that shone brightly through her passions. A longtime member of the Classic Glass Corvette Club of Marietta and the Two Daze Pleasure Yacht Club, she eventually traded her time on the water for the open road, giving up boating to cruise with Alan in their cherished Corvettes. She loved traveling, attending church, and spending every moment she could alongside the love of her life.
Cynthia is survived by her loving husband, Alan Brian Cowart; sister, Sherry Schwellinger & husband David; nieces and nephews; and many friends. She is preceded in death by her parents, Bruce & LaNell Gaylor and brother, Alan Gaylor.
Cynthia was known for her sweet nature, unwavering kindness, and the rare gift of never having a harsh word for anyone. She made every day a blessing to those around her, and her legacy of joy and love will continue to inspire all who were lucky enough to know her. Though she has driven on to her next great adventure, Cynthia leaves behind a road paved with memories, faith, laughter, and love.
