Cynthia Marie Mussaw (nee Perry), 72, of Conowingo, MD, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family on May 10, 2025. She was born in Massena, NY, on October 27, 1952 to the late Yvette May Perry and John Francis Perry.

Cindy will be remembered for her accommodating and supportive spirit, and her ability to bring family and friends together. Her family could always rely on her and she cherished them more than anything. She loved attending the games of her children and grandchildren, and they knew she would show up for them no matter what. She found joy in making poems for her grandchildren, and always made sure to include her husband in comedic productions she made for them, despite his initial reluctance. She was an enthusiastic gardener, and dedicated to her love for flowers, spending every day in her garden specifically known for her beautiful marigolds. Butterflies would frequent her gardens and always held special meaning to her.
