Family, fishing and music are priorities for Cindy Wichern

Cindy Wichern has found where she belongs. And its not far from her childhood home on French Road.

Wichern graduated from Lake Leelanau St. Mary in 1989 and went to Northwestern Michigan College earning an associate’s degree in general studies.

“I’ve always been fascinated by small business. My first job was working for my dad’s business, Electric Motor Repair & Service,” said the daughter of Leelanau musical icon John Rutherford. “I did the books, did inventory …and sent out invoices.”
