Re: Memories of Sister Cindy Nash.
Cindy certainly made an impact on the AFF community. As a fellow admin I can tell you that she was as much of a joy to work with in admin duties as she was posting on the general forum.
The great thing about the internet is that it levels the playing field. On AFF most of us didn't know of her health challenges so our respect for her wasn't based on empathy or pity but on the terrific person she was and the thoughtful posting and admin work she did here.
Although I never met her in person when we lost her so suddenly I felt like I had lost a friend I had known for a long time. I am comforted by the thought that her time on earth was just a short test drive for eternity where she will be with the Lord forever.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
