Cynthia Lee “Cindi” (Isaacs) Brownlee

January 13, 1958 July 13, 2024

Cynthia Lee Brownlee, 66, passed away peacefully in her husband’s arms on July 13, 2024, at 12:30 pm in her Hibibng home. She was born to Eugene and Claudia (Merfeld) Isaacs in Forest Lake, MN.

Cynthia's greatest accomplishment in life was being a mom. She was so proud to be able to brag about her son’s achievements in life. She also loved being the cool mom on the block. Through all the years of living in Hibbing, Cindi worked at Kmart, Short stop gas station, Walmart and Lowe's. At each of her jobs she absolutely loved helping the people of her community. Whether that was at Walmart getting your watch battery changed to Lowe's getting the right paint color. There was nothing that Cindi didn't try to fix on her own. You would often find her on the roof of her house fixing something, under the car changing brakes or out in the yard installing pumps in the mini pond. Her sense of humor and big smile was felt by all. 

She is survived by her husband John Brownlee, her two sons Jason Radmanovich and Jacob (Rachel) Seel. Parents Eugene and Claudia Isaacs. Sister Shirley Isaacs Franklin and Brother Mike (Kathy) Isaacs. Granddaughter Bebe Seel. Daughter by friendship Ragena Labarge.

Cindi was preceded in death by her infant son Nathan Radmanovich, Sister Sandy LemBerger, brother-in-law, Dan Franklin, and her in-laws, Wayne and Elfleda Brownlee.

Per Cindi’s wishes there will be a celebration of her life at her home on August 4, 2024, from 2-5 pm. Arrangements are with the Dougherty Funeral Home of Hibbing.
