Lucinda Marie (Cindy) Leyva

It's with profound respect and solemn hearts that we announce the departure of our beloved loving Lucinda Marie (Cindy) Leyva. She was called home to her eternal rest on April 25, 2024, at the young age of 70.

The family invites you to pay respects and celebrate her life at 12:00 pm on May 18, 2024, at Christy Smith Funeral Home, Larkin Chapel (2320 Outer Dr. N., Sioux City, IA) with a visitation taking place one hour prior.

Cindy was born on May 28, 1953, in Sioux City, IA, to Harold and Bonnie Bouck. She was their only daughter, and the apple of their eyes. Cindy was a strong, loving, independent woman with grace, dignity, and unwavering faith. She graduated from Elk Point High School. She carried with her the values of her upbringing, nurturing a home filled with love, laughter, and faith.

She enjoyed the companionship of her beloved dogs Milo and Lucky. She spent her free time enjoying her favorite shows like General Hospital, Price is Right, Wheel of Fortune, and House Hunters. Cindy went on to become the mother of two beautiful daughters whom she cherished and loved more than anything.

She is survived by her older brother Don (Marylou) Bouck of Burbank, SD, and her younger brother Craig (Debra) Bouck of Burbank, SD; her beloved, loving and wonderful daughters, eldest daughter Corren (Phil) Arredondo of Fort Worth, TX, and youngest daughter Cesilia (Christopher) Jackson of Sergeant Bluff, IA; 6 amazing grandchildren, Tyler Bellis and partner LeAnn, Jacob Bellis and partner Sydney, Brandon Bellis and partner Lilee, Landon Jackson, Emiley Jackson, and Bryson Arredondo; and 2 cherished great-granddaughters, Chloe and Bailey Bellis.

Cindy is preceded in death, joining our lord and savior Jesus Christ, by her parents, Harold and Bonnie Bouck; and her oldest brother, Russell Weavill.

The family asks that guests wear blue in honor of Cindy. To reflect on the life well-lived, the fight she fought, her legacy, kindness, and a soul at peace. May her memory live on in her family and be a beacon of the love she gave and shared with so many.
