Our beloved Uncle Cyril was a wonderful human being. He was passionate about Jesus and committed to his family. He was kind, loving, compassionate, steadfast, hardworking and had an endearing sense of humor. He unapologetically inspired and encouraged people to live for Christ. He lived for Jesus without compromise. His greatest wish was to see his loved ones and all those he encountered accept Jesus as their personal savior. "When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be!"
