In Loving Memory of Cindy Lou Beltran
5/20/1957 - 10/13/2026

Cindy Lou Beltran nèe Robbins, loving wife of Shanen "Tom" Beltran, beloved daughter of the late Jack and Sylvia Robbins, devoted mother to Shanen Beltran Jr. and Alexis Beltran (Miguel), cherished grandmother of Sophia, Isabella, Carmelo, Anuel, Clarissa, Aliyah, Thomas, and Valentina, dear sister of Linda Montgomery (Lawrence), valued sister-in-law to John "Peter" Beltran (Ruth), Grace Vazquez (Valentin), David "Rudy" Beltran (Paula), the late Salvador "Sal" Beltran (Rosemary), Lucy Mancilla, Richard Beltran (Alta Gracia), Juanita "Bonnie" Beltran, Rosemary Cervantes (Richard), Mickey Beltran, and Gloria Beltran, fond aunt of Caitlin Montgomery and Jimmy Montgomery (Clare), aunt and great aunt to many more, godmother of Leona Vela, treasured childhood best friend of Nancy Martinez, and adored friend to numerous others, earned her angel wings, leaving behind a family and a lifetime of memories shaped by her extraordinary love.

She was a woman with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Sweet, patient, kind, and endlessly loving, she had a way of making people feel special simply by being part of their lives. 
To her, love was found in time spent together, conversations that never seemed long enough, advice shared from the heart, and the countless little details that turned ordinary moments into something unforgettable.

Family was everything to her. 
She cherished her husband, her children and grandchildren, her sister, her nieces and nephews, her godchildren and the time she was able to spend with those she loved. 
She had a gift for bringing people together, creating beautiful gatherings and celebrations where every detail mattered. 
Holidays became treasured traditions, but her greatest gift was that she didn't need a holiday or special occasion to make a day meaningful. 
She had a way of making everyday life feel special.

Creative by nature, she loved art, music, and crafting, finding joy in making everything beautiful. 
In many ways, that was how she lived her life, too. 
She painted color into the lives of those around her through her warmth, her creativity, her generous spirit, and the love she gave so freely.

Her legacy is found not only in the things she created with her hands, but in the traditions she established, the values she instilled, the memories she made, and the love she planted in the hearts of her family. 
These are the things that will continue to grow long after her passing.

She will be deeply missed by any and all who were fortunate enough to know and love her.

By Cindy's wishes, there will be no service. 
In lieu of flowers or gifts, those wishing to honor her memory are invited to make a donation in her name to either of the following organizations:
• American Cancer Society: https://donate.cancer.org/
• Brookfield Zoo Chicago: https://www.brookfieldzoo.org/donate

She spent her life making ordinary days extraordinary. 
The beautiful things she created may be treasured, but the love she gave will be her greatest and most enduring masterpiece.

When you hear the words courage, strength, and kindness think Cindy.

Please don't forget to put meat through the machine twice and have a shot of tequila on Christmas day. 
Na zdraví! ¡Salud!

I love you, Muffin.
