Whiteville, NC, May 12, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Cynthia Akins Thornton has completed her new book, “The Stories of Cindy Suzer: Cindy Suzer and Grandma’s Prayer”: a delightful children’s story that follows a little girl who learns a valuable lesson about the power of prayer and God’s ability to heal.
Author Cynthia Akins Thornton is a wife and mother of two adult daughters, Abby and Rachel, and a mother-in-law to Farrell. Cynthia and her husband, Joe, are also brand-new grandparents. Cynthia was raised in Port Clinton, Ohio, but has lived in Whiteville, North Carolina, for most of her thirty-one years of marriage to her husband, Joe. Cynthia and Joe met at the Institute of Ministry at Christian Retreat, Bradenton, Florida, in 1989 and recently attended the IOM again to reconnect to the calling of God in their lives. Their heart is to always pursue Him and to say yes to whatever He asks them to do.
Cynthia writes, “Cindy Suzer was a little girl who lived in a small town with her daddy, her mommy, her brother, and her dog, Fluffy. Cindy Suzer loved it when her grandparents came to visit. They didn’t live close by like some of her friends’ grandparents did, so she didn’t get to see them very often.”
Published by Covenant Books, Cynthia Akins Thornton’s engaging tale encourages readers to believe in God’s ability to heal.

The release of Magical Musical Memories aligns with research indicating music’s capacity to reduce stress and rekindle recollection among people living with dementia. It also echoes widely shared experiences—from football legend Sir Alex Ferguson to the family of singer Tony Christie—of music’s unique ability to unlock the past.

“From the songs that we danced to at our first school dance, to the albums that became the soundtrack of our lives, each memory is a testament to the moments that have defined us,” said Helen Davies-Parsons, Chief Executive of Dormy Care Communities. “Music can transport us back to a specific time and place. Through these recollections, memories will now live on.”
