Cynthia King Justice, age 73, passed away August 25, 2013 after an extended battle with ovarian cancer.
Cynthia was born in Detroit, Michigan in 1940 and grew up in Middle River, MD. She graduated from Kenwood High School in Essex, MD with the Silver K award for Academic Excellence and Community Involvement.
Cynthia was a woman of undeniable spirit, energy, and determination. She was a woman of faith and generosity. Cynthia met life head on, rose to challenges and had many adventures. Cynthia was an avid Bridge player and was an active member of the First Presbyterian Church of Newark. She had engaging spirit and never met a stranger. Her interests and friends are too many too list, but her impact on others, love of life, and curiosity will carry on well beyond her passing.
She is preceded in death by her late husband, C. Mitchell Justice, who passed in 2011. Cynthia is survived by her brother, Howard J. King III; daughter, Tiffany Liston, son, Larry Grine, grandchildren Noelle Liston, Nathan Liston, Aiden Grine, Raegan Grine, and Madeline Grine.
Her memorial service will be held on September 14, 2013 at the First Presbyterian Church in Newark. A reception will immediately follow in the Memorial Hall West. See below or select the Funeral Services link for details.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial contributions to Premiere Charities, Inc of Wilmington, DE. Premiere Charities, www.premierecharities.org, is a charity that provides hot meals to the homeless and is a charity my mother very much enjoyed supporting.
