Obituary

Cynthia Eileen (Schuster) Aune, 62 of Cook, MN passed away on Monday, January 27, 2020. Cynthia was born to Henry and Marion (Lumbar) Schuster on August 22, 1957 in Cook, MN. Cynthia attended school in Orr, and then Loman High School where she graduated in 1975. Soon after graduating, she met and married William Steinbach; they were blessed with two sons, Richard and James, and the family lived in International Falls for a time before Cynthia's path led her in a different direction. Cynthia attended college in Hibbing and earned her Certified Nursing Assistant certificate; working for several nursing homes in the Hibbing area. She also worked at the Vermilion Hotel in Cook, MN and for Bois Forte as an Indian Child Welfare advocate.

Cynthia liked to stay busy in her free time; she loved going out to the "shack on the farm" during hunting season. She was also an avid, and successful, fisherwoman. She was very patient while fishing and would often out fish her family. Her family teasingly nicknamed her "Butch Furtman" after a famous angler. Cynthia also enjoyed her day trips to the Casino.

Cynthia was an easygoing soul who loved to joke around and have fun. She had a kind heart and was a very giving person; even though she did not have much, she would do anything she could to help someone in need. She loved her family with all of her heart; a family that included her dog Daisy whom she called "the love of her life".

Cynthia was preceded in death by her parents; her beloved son Richard Steinbach, and her dog Daisy.

She is survived by her son James Steinbach; brother Bruce Schuster; sister Roxanne Weatherton; granddaughters: Cassandra and Madison; and a great grandson, Jaxson.
