Cynthia
Lark
Aug 17, 1961 — Mar 30, 2026
Philadelphia
Cynthia Lark was born on August 17, 1961 in Philadelphia,
PA to the late Rosie lee and David T Lark. Affectionately
known as "Cynt" to family and friends, she was a proud
product of the Philadelphia public school system. She
later earned her GED from William Penn High School,
marking an important milestone in her life.
Cynt was known for her strong character, warm heart, and
unwavering presence. She carried an immense amount
of love for her family, friends and community, always
willing to give of herself to others. At the same time, she
commanded respect wherever she went. Her presence
alone was enough to influence behavior, especially among
children who knew her well. It was not uncommon to
here, "Here comes Lateef mom", prompting an immediate
shift in demeaner.
Cynt was also a devoted and passionate Eagles fan. Game
days were special to her, and she made it a point to be fully
engaged whenever her team was playing. During those
moments, she could often be found focusing on the game,
and anyone who called her knew not to expect an answer
while the Eagles were on.
She will be remembered for her strength, her love for her
family, her sense of authority balanced with care, and her
unwavering loyalty to the things and people she held dear.
Cynt's legacy lives on in the lives she touched, the values
she instilled, and the memories cherished by those who
knew and loved her.
Cynthia leaves to mourn but celebrate her life; high school
sweetheart Earl Harris; her son Lateef Jordan; 3 grandkids
Nasir Jordan, Jaden Jordan and Mason Jordan; 5 brothers
Jimmie Lark, Frank Lark, Howard Lark, Eugene Lark and
