CYNTHIA KAYE WHITE SINATRA

1952-2017

Cynthia Kaye White Sinatra, born to Wanda and Clinton White on December 16, 1952 in Bay City, Texas, died unexpectedly on April 20, 2017 in Houston, Texas.

Cynthia graduated from Boling High School where she was a twirler and a Bulldog supporter and proudly grew up in New Gulf, Texas.

Cynthia attended The University of Texas on a drama scholarship, graduated with a Marketing Degree from Sam Houston State and a Law Degree with a Juris Doctorate from South Texas College of Law.

Vocally talented, Cynthia was the opening act for Buddy Greco and others in Las Vegas. It was there that she met and married the “love of her life” Frank Sinatra Jr.

Later Cynthia, with her life long appetite for law and politics, was a Legislative Aid, Lobbyist and a well known Criminal Defense Attorney. Her law career took her to The Hague, The Netherlands, where she spent several years as a member of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. She was featured in The Wall Street Journal and on Court TV numerous times.

Cynthia was filled with pride over the accomplishments of her daughters, Jessica McMurrey, Brittany Brink and Victoria Brink. Her life was made complete with the births of her grandsons Robert Fraker and Lee McMurrey.

Also, left to mourn are Cynthia’s mother Wanda White; sisters Karen Herzik and Sharon Baker, and their families.

Cynthia’s huge host of loving friends the world over will miss her beauty, brilliance, gracious manner and zest for life.

A celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
