Cindy Carlson

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Cindy Carlson, who left us on October 5, 2026, at the age of 50. Born on April 5, 1976, in Edmonton, Alberta, Cindy was the beloved daughter of Don and Sheryl Carlson. Her life was a vibrant tapestry of love, laughter, and dedication, qualities that endeared her to all who knew her. Cindy's journey began in the halls of Cardston High School, where she first discovered her passion for cooking. This love for culinary arts blossomed into a fulfilling career as a chef, allowing her to share not only her delicious creations but also her warmth and generosity with others. Her kitchen was not just a place of work but a haven where she crafted meals that brought comfort and joy to all who tasted them. In addition to her culinary talents, Cindy was an ardent lover of hockey, both as a player and a devoted member of her local hockey club. Her enthusiasm for the sport was infectious, and she could often be found cheering from the stands or gliding across the rink with determination and grace. Cindy also had a deep affection for animals, and her home was a sanctuary for various furry companions who were fortunate to be embraced by her kindness. Cindy's big laugh and radiant smile were her trademarks, lighting up every room she entered and leaving a lasting impression on everyone she met. Her ability to find joy in the simplest moments was a gift she shared generously, bringing happiness to family and friends alike. Cindy leaves behind her beloved daughter, Dakota, to whom she was a devoted and loving mother. Her legacy of love and laughter will continue to live on through Dakota, as well as through her cherished parents, Don and Sheryl, and her supportive siblings. Cindy's brother and sister will remember her as a guiding light, a source of unwavering support, and a constant reminder of the power of a smile. Though Cindy is no longer with us, she remains forever in our hearts, her spirit a guiding force that will continue to inspire us all. Her family kindly requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to a charity of your choice in her memory, honoring the compassion and generosity that defined Cindy's life. As we say goodbye to Cindy, let us celebrate the remarkable person she was, her laughter echoing in our memories and her love forever enduring.
