Cynthia Graham
Treasurer
Cynthia Graham has been a homeowner in Terrace Park since 1988. She first joined the neighborhood association in 2000 and remained active until the closing of the group. She rejoined the 2019 re-established Terrace Park Neighborhood Association in 2020 and has been a key resource in connecting community members to TPNA.
Throughout her time in both iterations of our neighborhood association, Cynthia has been committed to keeping the Terrace Park Neighborhood Association active for the betterment of our community. She works closely with the City of Tampa officials and the residents of Terrace Park, greeting newcomers to the association with great energy and helpful resources. Cynthia has been blessed to live long enough to see her community become a diversified neighborhood that is fueled by respect and love for one another.
