Dear Otto,I want to thank you and others for providing me with a link to her train game forum board. I went there expecting to see only a few. I am astounded at the number of folks who responded. This was a part a moms life I did not know too much about. I have not yet been able to read them all. Not because of time, but tears. We have also received many e-mails of sympathy. I was somewhat shocked that they came from all over the world. I never realized how many friends she had. I hope to be able to answer each e-mail over the next few weeks. Please thank everyone for their notes of sympathy in our time of sorrow. It is wonderful to know that mom helped so many and was loved by so many.A friend of mom & dad, John from Pa flew in for the services. Before he left he installed the engines you and Jim Ward made for mom. Our son Matt will enjoy them very much. Thank you for them. I know that you all were very dear friends of moms and our loss is also yours. She was laid to rest yesterday morning in the family cemetary on the ranch. I love her so much and want her back. There is so much I want to say right now but can't, hopefully later.Lisa Hoagland

RE: Message to All from CYNDI's Daughter

Yeah, don't rush on that. After a few months maybe you could get a head on and profile shot, somebody could reskin the female hiker or something into a Cyndi object. A few snapshots of the ranch would be great too, if I could make BNSF Lady on PO&N 9 a reasonable facsimile of Wyoming, complete with people and horses, I think her grandson would get a kick out of that. Only thing I've ever seen were some pictures of Jackson Hole that one of the teachers I used to work for took while on vacation, those looked pretty much like the Mountain Division on the PO&N.

RE: Message to All from CYNDI's Daughter

What a great Idea, Jim !I shall put that to Lisa when the time is right and I am sure she would like her son to have the PON-9 with their ranch on it. Are there horses in MSTS we could sit Cyndi on, or make her a passenger, waiting on the platform at Cyndi for a BNSFLADY to arrive ?Would have to mail her an easy to install CD though !O t t o

RE: Message to All from CYNDI's Daughter

I think this is a very fitting tribute.If Cyndi's daughter gives permission to include a model of their ranch for inclusion in PO&N9+ it would be a great tribute to a great lady.John
