Cynthia Leigh "Cindi" Peecher

Cindi Peecher is mother to two fantastic children, Mark William (20) and Cynthia Ann (16) and for more than 28 years, spouse to Mark Bagozzi. Born and raised in the Detroit/Dearborn, MI area, Cindi graduated from Edsel Ford High School with honors and received her BA from the University of Michigan. Cindi is smart, beautiful, inquisitive, hardworking, dedicated, fantastic mother and joy to be around. She started work at age 13 and eventually started Peecher’s Pizza Shoppe in Dearborn, MI with her father and brothers. Her grandmother worked at the restaurant and she enjoyed not only cooking but laughing the days away with Grandma Bruce. They successfully ran the business for over 10 years. Mark and Cindi met in Detroit, MI, where they dated for several years and in 1989 married. Both moved to Florida soon after. Cindi loved the Florida sunshine (vitamin D), the green terrain and blue sky. Once in Florida, Cindi started work with a placement company. She had various jobs during this time until she was assigned as receptionist at Nickelodeon Studios Florida. She worked her way up to Director of Human Resources. This was a very fulfilling career for Cindi. While at Nickelodeon, Cindi obtained an MBA from Rollins College. Real estate investment became Cindi’s passion once children arrived. She bought, remodeled, sold and managed several properties over the last 17 years. She enjoyed finding a fixer upper. When Cindi's father passed away due to lung cancer, she set out to find how her family can improve their chances of cancer prevention, therefore, lessening the chance of treating the disease later. She poured through all the papers, books, videos, websites, etc... and was on a constant quest for knowledge. She determined that exercise, clean/organic diet, bottled (Evian of course) or filtered water, along with minerals and vitamins are the right path to a healthy life. So, she set her family out on this path a little over 7 years ago. She has taught them well and they will continue to live as she taught. In 2014, Cindi and Mark celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary by renewing their vows at St. Giorgio Church in Castel Condino, Italy. Generations of Mark's relatives were married in this church. This was a wonderful time as her with her children, family and close friends there to celebrate. This disease came on fast for Cindi in October 2017. What started as a cough turned out to be stage IV lung cancer. She never smoked and took great care of herself. She fought very hard to get better and tried to comply with all doctor demands. She did it all so she could spend more time with her kids who she loved more than anything. Unfortunately, the disease caught up with her and she will be missed but never forgotten. One never knows when it is their time so please hug your loved ones often and tell them how much you love them. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions to GoFundMe Peecher/Bagozzi Family fund https://www.gofundme.com/markbagozzi for medical expenses and children’s college. A celebration of Cindi’s life is being planned in Michigan later next year for family and friend that cannot attend the service.
