Celeste enjoyed volunteering with various organizations over the years. She had a talent with hosting holidays and special event gatherings for friends and family. She liked to spend time shopping, especially when she found something that caught her eye. She loved to travel and especially trips to the beach. Throughout her life she cherished her faithful feline companions, Simon, Tigger and Maddie. She enjoyed attending services at First Baptist Church of Conroe. She was loved by her family and friends and leaves behind many who will miss her.
In honor of Celeste, her family asks you to dress up and take a friend or family member out for a meal and have a glass of wine with them. This would have made her happy.
