John, so sorry to hear about Ceil! We know you will miss her dearly. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
What can be said about my Aunt "Cee Cee" as my kids call her? Aunt Ceil (and Unkie John) are literally the nicest people I have ever met. I know it sounds cliched but it's true. From my birthdays to my kids birthdays, they have always made time for me and my family. I will ALWAYS remember when both Ceil and John took me to the speedway in Charlotte. I will forever miss you aunt Ceil. God Bless. Love always, Michael
I have tried this several times....words are just not enough....I will miss you, my Cousin, your smile,your kindness, and your thoughtfulness. I love you. God Bless you and Peace be with you and with Pat and John.
Love,
Cheryl
My dear friend Celia, may God give your soul peace. I remember the old days when we worked together in Manhattan and had fun. I was sorry when Celia and John moved from New York. We treasure to have at least seen Celia a week ago. So positive about life and always cheerful and a great smile. We will miss you. I will miss the beautiful birthday cards you never forgot to send me. We are so sorry that you left your family and friends still so young. May you rest in peace and you will always be in our hearts and prayers. We pray that God give comfort to John and family.
Your friends. Albina and Rudolph
I was and still am heart broken over the loss of Ceil. I met Ceil and John through my husband and instantly loved both of them. Ceil and John are the Godparents to my two children, Shane and Sean. Ceil was the kindest person I have even had the pleasure of meeting. I am truly blessed to have memories that have her present. My children are more blessed to have had her in their little lives. After hearing about her passing, I looked around My living room and see pictures of her and My children. She had so much love for them. My children do not understand what has happened, but My oldest has told me that he "can't wait to visit aunt c c, I just love her and my uncle john.".
Ceil, you have left earth but you will never leave hearts. You will very much missed for years and years to come. I will never stop talking about you to your Godsons.
We love so much Ceil, and John.

Ceil and I have been friends for 40 years. We shared good times and we shared bad times. Ceil is the godmother of both of my grandsons, Shane and Sean. When ever Ceil came down to Marietta for a visit the boys got so excited that their aunt CC and uncle John were coming and that was their main focus. Ceil always had a positive attitude with life even during difficult times. I am going to miss her terribly. Our friendship was one that you would only find in a fairy tale. When Ceil first got sick, she maintained a wonderful attitude right up until the end. Ceil is in heaven now, she's done her work here on earth, now God has plans for his new angel.
We love you Ceil
A newcomer in Ceils life, I came to know and love her through life long best friend Maureen McCarthy. What a wonderful gift to the world. I shall deeply miss her laughter.

Oh Cecelia! A flood of memories come rushing back: memories of Sundays at Nana's and Grandad's. Memories of visiting you and Pat at the Ninth Avenue apartment; memories of you, Pat and your mom coming out to my mom's house in Bergenfield. I say the same thing that I said about cousin Lena's passing. I feel as though we all grew up together! One large family together! Your passing makes me so sad, so very very sad.
May God Bless your soul. I feel confident that you are in Heaven already, for you were always such a good, good person! I do believe that The Lord made sure that you and John met and married, andI believe you truly fulfilled your purpose in life.
Again, God Bless You Cecelia!May you truly rest in peace.
