My thoughts are with you all on Cece's death.  I remember when Cece and Stan were dating (I was a little girl)--her easy laughter,her engaging animated conversation.  May her memory be a blessing.

Harry, Wende, and Molly (and the entire Stern family)- so sorry to learn of your loss.  My mom passed just 2 days earlier and I was down in Phoenix with my father and sisters when I learned Mrs. Stern passed.  Jon Heller was kind enough to send me an e-mail.  Please know I've been thinking about you and the family and hope that in due time the pain and loss felt now fades and years of great memories help you smile, smile, smile.

Dear Stanley and family,
We are very sad to hear of CeCe's passing
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and
your family. We will miss her-she was a great lady.

I first met Stan, Cece and the family about  2 years ago and felt like part of the family immediately. Coming in of a morning to help out, I was always greeted with her powerful smile and warm heart. Cece was one of a kind in her spirit. She could make any bad situation feel minor. I will miss her warmth and compassion and her drive to help Stan in any way possible. My deepest sympathy Stanley, Harry, Leslie, David, Michael, and to all of her loving friends and family.

Dear Stanley and family, 

We are sorry to hear that you have lost CeCe.  (To us it seemed so sudden!) We have always admired her loving dedication, and unflagging commitment to you and all those she cared so much about. She was truly a bright and loving force in the world.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. God bless.

Stanley and family,

Cece always had an enormous smile on her face and was so much fun to visit with.  The love she had for her husband and family always made me smile with her.  She had one of those personalities that exuded kindness and charisma.  Please know I am keeping you all in my prayers.  Cece will be sadly missed.

Stanley, Leslie, Harry, David and Michael, I am so sorry for your loss.  You are all in our thoughts.

My prayers and thoughts are with the Stern family at this difficult time.  She was more than just a neighbor; she was a very nice person to be around.  So sorry for your loss.

A full and active life so suddenly ended for a terrific lady this week. Cece your twinkling eyes will always shine thru your children. I am thinking of all of you.

Cece was a dear friend from our college days at MacMurray.  Her winning smile and twinkling eyes won her over to all who knew her.  I feel privileged and rewarded to have know her.  God's blessings and sympathy to her family.

Dear Stan, I am so sorry for your loss of our beloved CeCe. I have such wonderful memories of the both of you as I was growing up and you mean so much to me.

Stern Family-  I really love the Picture of CeCe that was chosen, it shows her spirit and the love that has always shown through. She will always be missed.

Dear Stan and all Sterns, CeCe's passing is a great loss to us and to everyone who knew her.  We both have such fond memories of her, her great sense of humor, her soft Brooklyn vowels, her generosity, kind heart and talents.  This news is so sad - she will be so greatly missed.    Please accept our deepest condolences at this painful time.  Love to you all, Adrianne & John

Goodbye CeCe, we will miss you. Jean and I are so glad that we were able to see you and Stan when were in Springfield last year following my sister's 80th birthday. Doug Mclain. Rosarito, Baja California, Mexico

We will always remember the kindness of Stanley and Cece in welcoming us to Maple Grove Lane. May happy memories carry you through this sorrowful time.

I will fondly remember the times CeCe helped us with the Chatham library.  She was such a tremendous person, who gave her all...  I also have memories of the time we supported our boys at piano lessons and will let Charlene know of your loss.  Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Stanley so sorry for your loss your family is in my prayers I talked to Mrs. Stern at Christmas time. Joyce Goldesberry daughter of Ivan Harlan

Stanley & Family,
Please accept my deepest regrets and know you are in my thoughts.

harry, my condolences to you and your family on your loss.

My sympathy and  prayers go out to then entire Stern family.  My husband, Vance 'Sniffy' Kane, was one of Stan's first friends, along with Lou Myers.  I first met the Sterns some 30 years ago and they embraced me as if they had know me forever.  I'll never forget the kindness shown to me by Cece and all the fun times we had, both in Springfield and in Delaware. The photo of Cece is beautiful, just as I'll remember her.  She will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with Cece's family. I was fortunate to be associated with her in several ways during parenting days in Chatham.  A loss to the community as well as her family.

My love and prayers go out to Stanley, Leslie, Harry, David, Michael and the rest of the family.  CeCe was a wonderful person and I am going to miss the talks we use to have.  She will be dearly missed.

Stern family,
I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

               Josh Goodner and family

Stan, Mike, and family, 
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I was fortunate to meet CeCe several times over the years and always found her to be gracious, kind, and engaging. Plus, I feel that I came to know her somewhat from some good stories I heard from mutual friends.

God's blessings and comfort to you all.

Marty Michelson
