LEGACY Feb.  2026
CYNTHIA MARDIS TRUSSELL

Cynthia Trussell, 63, of Madison, Mississippi, passed away unexpectantly on 
February 8, 2026, at UMMC in Jackson. She was born on July 19, 1962, in Bastrop, 
Louisiana, to Eugene and Fannie (Winters) Mardis.

Cynthia was known for the love she had for her family. Specifically, her 
husband, Gregg in which they would have shared 44 years together this July. Her 
daughters were her everything and the love she had for them was one she 
explained as a love you will never understand until you have kids of your own. 
In 2018, Cynthia earned her most favorite title of all, Cissy. Cynthia's love 
for her 6 grandchildren was unmatched. Each one of them known as Cissy's love 
loves. That title was one she took much pride and joy in.

Cynthia worked as a Team Lead, Underwriting Ops for FCCI Insurance Group and was 
known for her kindness, her steady spirit, and her deep love for the Lord. Each 
morning, her day started with a cup of coffee and reading the Word. She 
cherished those early mornings sitting in the quiet, reading, and praying. She 
set by example.

Her happy places were the beach which she visited every year with family soaking 
in God's creation and quality time with her husband, kids, and grandkids. The 
place she enjoyed most of all was Walt Disney World where pure joy and 
excitement filled her. When she couldn't escape to Disney or the beach, you 
could find her at her favorite Mexican restaurant eating chips and queso with a 
Diet Coke.

Cynthia is survived by her husband of 43 years, Gregg Trussell; her daughters 
Mallory Godfrey (Derrick), Taylor Stover (Josh), and Abby Douglas (Scott); her 
sister Jennifer Stuart (Reid); her grandchildren Mae Mardis Godfrey, Russell 
Godfrey, Emmett Stover, Harris Stover, Lee Stover, and Will Douglas; her niece 
Brooke McFarland (Nate); her nephews Justin Gordon (Lauren), Jace Gordon 
(Holly), and Tyler Trussell; and her brothers-in-law Todd Lane and Daniel 
Trussell.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Eugene and Fannie Mardis, and her 
sister Saundra Lane.

Visitation will be held at Pinelake Church in Madison on Thursday, February 12, 
2026, from 10:00-11:30, followed by a Celebration of Life at 11:30 am. 
Entombment will be private.

Cissy, we love you to the moon and back, moon and back, moon and back. See you 
soon.
