Cecil, my “Grampy”, exuded every quality of a role model. He was faithful, loving, compassionate and respectful. Even more, he was a family man in every sense of the phrase. I will never forget the morals and values he instilled in me, nor will I forget the great rounds of golf we enjoyed together. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family, especially to Mary, my “Grammy”. We will all miss him and celebrate his long, inspiring life together. I know that Cecil is watching over all of us in heaven.

Love,
Logan Blignaut
