CeCile Madeline Santamore Sanborn Muller

CeCile Madeline Santamore Sanborn Muller, 74, of Foxwood Dr., Eastham, MA, wife of George Louis Muller, died Sunday, (No- vember 10, 2002) at home after a long battle with cancer. Born on the 24th of June 1928, she was the daughter of the late Gladys (Pineault) and Allen Santamore of Elmwood. She resided in Middletown for many years until retiring to Cape Cod, MA in 1996. She was an active member of the First Baptist Church in Middletown, as well as the United Methodist Church in Eastham, MA. Through the years she held the position of church secretary for several churches in Middletown and helped with some office duties from time to time for her church in Eastham. She was a friendly, loving, active and creative person. She helped many and was always available to all who needed her. She also had a problem with the word "no", as many of us can attest to. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. She is survived by George, her husband of over 33 years; by her six children, Diane (Sanborn) Butterworth and her husband Jeffrey of Portland, Robin Lee Sanborn, Linda (Stickles Sanborn) Tencza and her husband Roger, Steven Muller, Patricia Muller and Lori Ann Sanborn, all of Middletown; and three grandchildren, Mandy Lee Butterworth of Acton, MA, Robert D. Sanborn, of Middletown, and Damon Scott Butterworth of Portland. She was predeceased by her first husband, Robert DuWayne Sanborn; and their son, Robert Dwight Sanborn, aka "Slugger". A memorial service will be held on Saturday, November 16, 11 a.m., at the First Baptist Church on Main Street in Middletown. There will be no calling hours. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the Lymphoma Society or the First Baptist Church, Main St., Middletown, CT 06457.
