Cynthia J. Strehl

Cynthia J. Strehl, 73, of St. Clair, Missouri, passed away peacefully on Friday, June 21, 2024 surrounded by her loving family. 

Cynthia Joane Strehl was born May 18, 1951 to the late William and Mary (Gutherie) Hall in Sedalia, Missouri. Cynthia was a proud graduate from Northwest High School in Fenton, Missouri. 

Cynthia began working as a cashier before staying home to raise her young family. She enjoyed the simple pleasures of country life, spending time in the pool, raising basset hounds, and watching hummingbirds and bluebirds. She enjoyed being creative and decorating for the holidays and giving gifts to her grandchildren. Cynthia was so proud of her grandchildren and would tell everyone about them. 

She was devoted to her family; faithfully caring for her mother for nine years. Cynthia dreamed of spending the night in a treehouse, which she did just this past fall. She attended church for some time in Cuba and made a profession of faith while attending there. She will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered. 

Cynthia is survived by her loving husband, Joe Strehl of Saint Clair, MO; three children: Shawna Wells and husband Fred of Saint Clair, MO, George Strehl and significant other Chrissy of Sullivan, MO, and Kevin Strehl and wife Tracy of Stanton, MO; a step-daughter, Kelly Riley and husband Jim of Kansas; nine grandchildren; a sister, Judy Mackie and husband Dick of Michigan; many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. 

She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Mary. 

A Memorial Service will be planned for a later date.
