Ce, You were a great friend. I was so thankful to have share many moments in your life. You brightened up many a day! You will truly be missed by all lives you touched! I am glad I got to see you last summer and have a long talk with you. Have a great time with all who have passed before you and we will see you again! Love ya

Ceci, you will always have a very special place in my heart.  You are the only person I've ever known that was 100% authentic, 100% of the time. I know that you are entertaining everyone up in heaven, as you did here on earth.  Love you Forever!

Well sister our time together on earth has ended but I know you will reserve the mansion next to you for me. Red sends her love & knows she needs to keep in line as her Godmother is now her guardian angel.

Thanks for 20 years of friendship and memories. I admired your strength as you fought your fight & the dignity with which you did. Until we meet again you will be alive in my heart. 

GO CHIEFS!!!

Ted,
So sorry to hear of Cecilia's passing. You may not remember us but your Mom and Dad  were our daughters GodParents. I know your sister is now at peace with your parents. You will be in our thought and prayers.

You were a wonderful woman and I am so blessed to have known you. I know that you were welcomed into your heavenly home with open arms.

You will be missed Ceci,but now you are in a better place with your mom.

Cees, you were a one of a kind and I am ever so grateful that you were and always will be a part of me.  I am so happy for you now, no more pain, no more struggle.  I know you and Gracie are living it up.  This world has lost your light, but the universe has a new star shining bright.  Love you.  P.S. your kitty Sabrina will be with you soon, take good care of her!  :)

Cecelia, you'll be missed here, and very welcome up above.  You are now in the hands of our maker. Had good times growing up in  the  neighborhood.

You fought a fight most people would never have begun. Godspeed on your new journey. Pops & Mom

Ceci was one of the nicest, funniest, and wonderful friends I never met. Her comments on the A Place To Chat page were sometimes insightful, sometimes hysterically funny, and she will be missed by a large group of men and women who have loved, worried, and prayed for her. She has found the peace her body could not find in life.  My condolences and prayers for her family and all who knew her.

Going to miss you 
Say hello to everybody for us

I know you are happy now with no pain. May you and the rest of your family be comfortable knowing that you are happy now you're finally home. You surely will be missed..sending love and light your way.
