Cynthia Ann Henshaw (Cindi)

Cynthia Ann Henshaw (Cindi), age 63, passed away on October 17, 2022. Cindi was born on February 19, 1959 to William (Bill) and Agnes Main. She was a 1977 graduate of William Chrisman high school.  She worked at several pharmaceutical companies through the years including McPike, McKesson and AmerisourceBergen and was a customer service representative at the end of her career.

Growing up, Cindi was a member of First Christian Church in Independence, where she was baptized a Christian. She played piano and was in the school orchestra and stage band.

She met Roy David Henshaw and they were married in 1982. In 1984 they had a son, Jeremy David Henshaw.

Cindi was preceded in death by her parents, Bill and Agnes, her husband, David, and a brother, Donald Lee. She is survived by her son, Jeremy David Henshaw, brother and sister-in-law John and Kristy Main, brother and sister-in-law Steve and Tonda Henshaw, adopted daughter, Amy Mallinson, adopted granddaughter Brooklyn, along with niece Lyndsey Padget, nephew Ryan (Bethany) Main, niece Michael (Joey) Zarrillo and nephew Zach Henshaw.

Through the years Cindi enjoyed attending Jeremy’s baseball games and cheering on his teams.  Anyone who knew Cindi knew that she was a huge Chief’s fan and was so excited watching the Chief’s and “her Kelsey and Mahomes” these past few years. Her other love was the ocean and beach and she was able to take a Caribbean cruise with David and Jeremy and also make several visits to Aruba, St. Maarten and Hawaii.

The family would like to extend our sincere thanks to each of Cindi’s caregivers during the last several weeks at North Kansas City Hospital for their exceptional care and compassion, as well as the amazing caregivers at Kansas City Hospice House.
