Biography: Cynthia Clarice Price, 67, of Little Rock, Ark. died on 24 March 2025. She is survived by her husband Dr. Herbert (Bert) Price, her sons Ron Young II and his wife Taelor of Jonesboro, Ark., Jonathan Young and his wife Beckey of Jonesboro, Sergeant First Class Hamilton Price and his wife Shiva of Baltimore, Maryland and daughter Mary Elkins and her husband Daniel of Van Buren, Ark. Surviving grandchildren are Herbie Price, and Luke, Hannah and Hailey Elkins.
 
Cindy was born on 12 September 1957 in Hayti, Missouri to Harold Jackson and Betty Boone Jackson. She grew up on the family farm in the Bootheel of Missouri near Deering, Missouri. She attended Southeast Missouri State, leaving after a year to marry Ron Young, her first husband and father to her sons.  She and Ron farmed near Deering. 
 
After several years, she went back to college at Arkansas State University getting a degree in Education. Cindy then served as a 6th grade schoolteacher at the Delta C-7 School in Deering and later taught in Memphis, Tennessee and Blytheville, Ark.  She returned to ASU for her master’s in counseling degree. She became a Licensed Professional Counselor and worked as a psychotherapist at Mid-South Health Systems. She married Bert in 1996.  She practiced with Bert at the Price Clinic in Jonesboro as an LPC and LPC Supervisor in Jonesboro for many years. In the mid 2000’s she became a certified yoga teacher.
 
 
Cindy retired from practice in 2016 when they moved to Little Rock.
 
Cindy was a world traveler. Starting as a young girl she traveled overseas every summer with her mother, Granny Sarah, Granny Jackson and Granny Boone while their husbands farmed.  She continued her travels with Bert.
 
She loved her time at the lake house at Lake Norfork with her children and grandchildren. She was the best boat pilot in the family. Launching boats at the ramp was another matter when drain plugs, keys and kill switches were often forgotten when the family boat launching complex constellated!
 
Cindy developed deep and meaningful relationships with her women friends as they explored many aspects of spirituality. She was wholly open to unlimited possibilities, deeply impacting many. Cindy explored many spiritual paths and specifically was deeply engaged in the study of A Course in Miracles- a path of inner transformation and the practice of forgiveness.  She aimed to align her perception with divine love rather than fear, experiencing inner peace and awakening. 
 
Viewing and visitation will be held at Ruebel Funeral Home, 6313 W Markham, Little Rock, Ark on Wednesday, 2 April 2025 from 5 to 7 pm. A Celebration of Life Memorial Service will be held at Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church on Thursday, 3 April 2025 at 11am.
 
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in her honor to Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church, 4823 Woodlawn Drive, Little Rock AR 72205. Services under the direction of RuebelFuneralHome.com

Bert and Family:

I was very sad to hear of the loss of Cindy. She was my graduate assistant at ASU and was excellent in that role and as a graduate student. She was a wonderful person and professional counselor. Think of you and the family at a most difficult time.

With Sympathy,

John D. Hall

Cindy was my “soul” sister… plain & simple. I loved her as the sister I never had. Not sure how to describe our relationship or where to start, since I could write a book. She had the biggest heart of anyone I know and I will never forget her sweet voice and the calmness that filled the room when she entered. Her spirit will remain forever with all who loved her.
Sending much love to her family members.

My first friend. I can’t tell you goodbye so I’ll see you later. You will always be in my heart. I love you always. Boys, your mother loves you so much. Y’all are her pride and joy. She’ll be waiting to greet you with one of her big ole hugs one day.

Cindy you will live forever in my memory. In high school we had a very strong friendship. Ron and Jonathan, be assured that she was a loyal friend and always honest, She took care of her friends when there was something going on with them. Often she was the one to bring people together as a unit of trust and understanding. Cindy had a smile, a laugh, and a characteristic way of spreading happiness and fun.
