Cynthia Weiss Munson's Obituary
Ms. Cynthia “Cindie” Weiss Munson, age 77, passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday, October 7, 2023. She was born in Detroit, Michigan on November 16, 1945 to Philip and Elinore (Dwyer) Weiss. Cindie graduated from Grosse Pointe Academy of the Sacred Heart and shortly after moved to Boston, Massachusetts to attend college. She instantly fell in love with Boston and remembered her time there fondly. She later moved back to Michigan where she earned her Bachelor and Master of Education. Cindie raised her family in Dearborn, Michigan prior to moving to the family cottage on Lake Michigan in 1992. Miss Cindie, as her students affectionately referred to her, spent her career teaching in several different districts before retiring from Griffin Elementary in Grand Haven. In retirement, Cindie enjoyed swimming at the Spring Lake Aquatic Center, reading books with her book club friends, spending time on the beach, and spending time with her grandchildren. She will be remembered fondly as a big kid at heart, singing and joking up to a couple days prior to her death. She is survived by her two sons, Gregory Munson and Christopher Munson and two grandchildren, Brooklyn Munson and Brady Munson. She was preceded in death by her parents and sister, Suzanne Weiss. MASS OF CHRISTIAN BURIAL will be held 11:00AM Friday, October 13, 2023 at St. Patrick-St. Anthony Catholic Church (920 Fulton St., Grand Haven, MI 49417) with Fr. Dan Schumaker presiding.
