HUDSON FALLS – Cynthia S. Hummel, 64, of Hudson Falls, passed away peacefully on Sunday morning, May 8, 2022 at her home.
Born on February 22, 1958 in Granville, she was the daughter of the late Oswald and Opal (Myers) Williams. Cynthia grew up in Granville where she graduated from Granville High School and went on to Adirondack Community College, earning an Associate Degree in Journalism.
Upon graduation from college, she went to work at the Glens Falls Business Journal. A people person by nature, Cynthia went on to work in many social facets including the ARC in Fort Edward and Granville as well as local area convenience stores. Cynthia enjoyed trivia and watching Jeopardy. She loved gardening and was always up for taking a ride looking for adventure. She had many pet dogs over the years and she loved them all, especially her dog Zoey.
She is survived by her children, David Hanchey (Dawn Van Tassell) of Queensbury; Michael Aaron DuBay (Lee) of New Hampshire, and Alex Hummel of Troy; her sister, Kathy; and many close friends that were there for her at her time of need, including Evelyn Hafner and Marie Bachich.
A celebration of Cynthia’s life will be held at a later date.
Arrangements are under the care of the Carleton Funeral Home, Inc., 68 Main Street in Hudson Falls.
I am very sorry to hear that Cyndy has passed. She and I grew up together in Granville, NY and were best friends during our school years. I wish her safe travels to her next destination and that she will find a new life in the great beyond.
Shocked to read about my sister’s passing in the Post Star. I’m at a loss for words, not knowing of her sickness. I regret not trying harder to connect with her, being there for her in her time of need, and being able to say goodbye. Hopefully she has found peace and has been reunited with our parents.
