My deepest and most heartfelt condolences to my cousins and their families. Aunt Cecelia was a wonderful lady whom I don't ever recall having a bad thing to say about anyone. She and Uncle James raised 4 very special boys, who have grown into 4 very special men. I know she was very happy to be a grandmother also. I was fortunate enough to have spent some time with the family years ago and saw first hand how proud she was of her "men". She exemplified herself as a wife, a mother, an aunt and I will miss her. I will be keeping the family close to my heart and in my prayers. God Bless each of you.

Your Wayward Cousin,
Ernie

I work with Paul and want to extend my deepest sympathy to him and his family.

I just wanted to let you folks know that Mom, Lynne, and I and our families have you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Aunt Cecelia was a great lady and I am sure she will be sorely missed.

My heart is broken by the loss of my oldest and dearest friend. We grew next door to each other in Washington, NC. We had our own little "Our Gang" and me being the youngest aways got to hold the "Snipe Bag".I couldn't get away with stealing Cecelia's paper dolls and had to give them back.Then later we worked at the Production Credit Association until Jim took her away. Then I married a Marine too and our paths didn't cross again for years. We caught up lately and talked on the phone many times. I will sorely miss her, but we will meet again and talk about old times once more.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
