a clip from the Seattle Times obituary:

     Jeff Hansen, the program director at KUOW, said Ms. Doyon was an  
"incredibly hard worker and a complete professional in her work."
"In 24 years of doing 'Swing Years,' I don't believe she missed a  
single show, was never late, was never sick," Hansen said.

Jim Doyon Jr. said his sister left a note saying she was despondent  
over finances and her future and that she felt discouraged her radio  
career seemed to have stalled.   "Sometimes people don't appreciate the  
contributions they make," he said. "In Cindy's case, it was her  
friends, and the following she had."
