Skip Granger I grew up in Joplin with Cindy and dated her best friend there. We both later moved to Wichita and walked together at our church for high school graduation. Her parents lived close to mine at Twin Lakes in Wichita, and I got to know her husband and family. We used to swim and play shuffleboard and boat on the lake together. I was sorry to see her pass at such a young age.
