Cindy was raised in Waukee, Iowa by Joseph (Joe) and Darlene (Darby) Johnson along with her three siblings; Jeff, Cissy and Curt.

Cindy was born with hereditary Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) which took the life of her father in 1974. Despite the disease, she lived a happy full life with her husband and family until her kidneys began to worsen and she was granted a new lease on life in 2015 with a kidney transplant. This did not turn out to be the cure she (and her family) were looking for as there were numerous challenges subsequent to the transplant. In August 2019 she was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer which was a difficult setback. Cindy met this challenge with the strength and determination that only she could provide. Unfortunately, after almost four years battling complications from the transplant and 8 months fighting cancer, there was no amount of fighting that would save her life.
