Coeur d'Alene Press - The Daily Bee 
Cynthia Ann Wraspir, 35

Self-proclaimed city girl and Liberty Lake, Wash., resident Cynthia Ann 
Wraspir succumbed to a long and courageous battle with cancer on July 27, 
2005. She was 35 years old.

Cynthia graduated from Coeur d'Alene High School in 1986. She continued her 
education at the University of Idaho. Cynthia graduated from Texas Tech 
University in 1990 with a bachelor's degree in fashion marketing and home 
economics.

After spending some time abroad, she chose Los Angeles as her home. In 1991, 
Cynthia began her career as an Argentine tango dancer, an art she described 
as "a dance of walking, a moment of passion, intrigue, dualism and 
excitement." She performed at some of the most prestigious venues in America, 
including the world renowned Radio City Music Hall. During that time, Cynthia 
appeared in a number of television series and movies, including "Red Shoe 
Diaries" (Another Woman's Lipstick) and "Dance With Me."

Cynthia moved back to Liberty Lake in 1999 to combat her illness with the help 
of her parents. While living in Liberty Lake, Cynthia passed on her dancing 
passion to the students of her Tango class at Simply Dance Studio in Spokane. 
Teaching the art of Tango dancing to others brought her great joy and 
satisfaction in the final years of her life.

She is survived by her parents, Gary and Jeannette Wraspir of Liberty Lake; 
sister Kali and fiance Scott, Olympia, Wash.; grandmother Helen Dashiell, 
Liberty Lake; several aunts and uncles; and a large number of ever-loving 
friends.

"A unique and powerful spirit has left our lives. Those who knew Cynthia know 
of the strength that one soul can possess. While she is not in our sight, she 
will never be out of our hearts."

Viewing will be 7-8 p.m. Aug. 2, and funeral service will be 11 a.m. Aug. 3, 
both at English Funeral Chapel, Coeur d'Alene, who is in charge of the 
arrangements. Burial will be 11 a.m. Aug. 4 at Odessa Cemetery in Odessa, Wash.

Contributions may be made to Hospice of Spokane, P.O. Box 2215, Spokane, WA 
99210.
