Cindy June (West) Medlock

Cindy June Medlock, nee West, of Cuba, MO, was born on Saturday, January 24, 1959, in Houston, MO to Marion G. West and Blanche Rosetta West, nee Barton.  She passed away on Tuesday, September 24, 2024, at Missouri Baptist Hospital at the age of 65 years and 8 months.

Cindy grew up in Cuba, MO and graduated from Cuba High in the Class of 1978.  In 1981, she met Kenneth “Mike” Medlock whom she later married on January 3, 1983, in Raymondville, MO and to this union three daughters were born.  Cindy waitressed at Old 66 Restaurant and then opened Cindy’s Side Street Diner in Cuba, MO.  However, her most important job was to raise her children and help babysit her grandchildren, who were her whole world.  She enjoyed gardening, canning her vegetables and cooking.  She liked traveling with Mike, fishing and going boating.  Decorating for the holidays was her favorite, especially Christmas.  Cindy attended Covenant Praise Church online in Cuba and never wavered in her faith with the Lord. She genuinely loved life, was always happy and enjoyed living in the moment, which she encouraged her family to do as well.  She was a natural caregiver; she was always willing to lend a helping hand – even to a stranger.  Cindy was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend.

She was preceded in death by her parents Marion and Blanche West; parents-in-law Vernon Lee and Rosa Bell Snow; and sister Cherry West.

Cindy is survived by her loving husband of 41 years, Mike Medlock of Cuba, MO; children Penny (husband Gerald) Rodgers, Brandy (husband David) Evans and Ashley (husband Chris) McPherson all of Cuba, MO; grandchildren Jordan, Tyson, Gracie, Ryan, Cooper, Emma, and Henry; siblings Betty (husband Doug) Brock of Belton, MO, Janey (husband Ernie) Crider and Scott West both of Cuba, MO; many brothers-in-laws and sisters-in-laws; aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
