Cynthia Ann “Cindy” Harlan, 56, of Rockford, died Saturday, Jan. 30, 2010 at SwedishAmerican Hospital after a brief, yet courageous battle with breast cancer. Born Aug. 20, 1953 in Rockford, daughter of Edward Glen and Agnes (Kurkerewicz) Newell. Graduate of Auburn High School. Cindy was a member of St. Bernadette Catholic Church and a season ticket holder for the Rockford Ice Hogs. When she wasn’t in the stands cheering on the Ice Hogs, she took time to enjoy quilting, crocheting, gardening and Thomas Kinkade art work. Cindy truly loved spending time and being with her children and grandchildren. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother and sister and will be missed greatly. The family would like to extend a sincere thank you to the 7th floor nursing staff at Swedish American Hospital and Dr. John Plescia for the extra care and attention they provided our mother.
