TEDESCO (CURVAN),
CYNTHIA LEE
Cynthia “Cindy” Lee Tedesco, 73, of Richland, left this world on Friday, November 15, 2024, at home, surrounded by love. Born on September 19, 1951, and a lifelong resident of North Wildwood, Cindy was a cherished soul who left an indelible mark on everyone fortunate enough to know her.
In her early years, Cindy worked as a beautician, filling lives with beauty and grace before devoting herself fully to the heart of her life: her family. She found profound joy in caring for her loved ones, a role she embraced with boundless love, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Cindy's warmth was magnetic, and her presence radiated a comforting strength that held us all together.
She was a beloved mother, grandmother, and wife-known for her tender spirit and fierce loyalty. Cindy loved the simple joys of life, whether she was working on her word searches, piecing together her signature stylish outfits, or sharing stories of her youth that held timeless lessons. Her happiest moments were spent alongside her grandchildren, whose lives she enriched with her love, laughter, and cherished memories.
Cindy wasn't just our family's anchor-she was our light, our teacher, and our “Gram” to all who knew her, even those outside the family. She treated everyone as her own, and in her quiet yet powerful way, she passed down the many talents, values, and love that will live on through her family's legacy. To have known her was to be truly blessed.
Cindy is reunited now with her beloved husband, Joseph Tedesco, her parents, North Wildwood Fire Chief George and Carol Curvan and her sister, Terri Curvan. She now watches over her daughter Heather Gillespie of North Wildwood, Sean and Dayna Flynn of Boston, Thomas Speigel of Glendora and nine adored grandchildren: Gabrielle, Olivia, Butchie, Natalia, Seany, Keira, Ella, Tommy and Ben each carrying a piece of her spirit within them.
Funeral services will be held on Monday, November 25, 2024, at Radzieta Funeral Home, 9 Hand Avenue, Cape May Court House. The viewing will begin at 1:30 pm and the service will begin at 2:30 pm. Interment will be private. Condolences may be shared at www.radzieta.com.
In honoring Cindy's life, we remember a beautiful soul whose love was the foundation of our family and whose memory will live forever. Donations in Cindy's memory may be made to any veteran's charity.
