Cindy is an Atlanta native, but she and her husband, Les, have now settled in the beautiful mountains of Blue Ridge after 14 years of living in Jefferson, Ga. She cherishes her awesome grown children and is the proud grandmother of seven, with one more on the way!  Cindy is an avid animal lover and has several beloved rescue pets.

Cindy & Les have always been deeply committed to their community. In Jefferson, Cindy was actively involved in the Jefferson Woman’s Club, Tumbling Waters Historical Society, Crawford Long Museum, American Legion Auxiliary, Main Street Jefferson, and supportive of Dirt Road Doggies Rescue and Jackson County Young Life.
