Cecile was a wonderful mother-in-law. She showed understanding, patience, forgiveness but most importantly undying love. That love will be remember in the hearts of many...especially mine. May you rest in peace now Cecile, waiting at the Golden Gates of Heaven for your most treasured family. God bless you.

For many years, Cecile was not only a "mother-in-law" but also truly like a second mother to me. She was always eager to have an "ear" to listen to her life stories in exchange for enjoying her amazing cooking with that French Canadian flair! Cecile was one of the most compassionate, caring and loving people I have ever met. She always strove to find laughter and fun in her life and her family has been so truly blessed to have been able to have her as their mother and wife. She will be so greatly missed, always remembered and never forgotten.
