WHO WAS CELLUS?
CELLUS WAS A GOOD GUY, A FUN LOVING GUY. A GUY THAT ALWAYS MEET YOU WITH A SMILE AND LEFT OTHERS WITH A SMILE ON THEIR FACE AT TIMES WHEN WE WERE DOWN AND OUT. HE WAS KIND, GENTLE AND TRUE. THANK YOU LORD FOR ALLOWING CELLUS TO PUT A SMILE ON OUR FACE AND FOR BEING A FRIEND. REST IN PEACE CELLUS AND ENJOY YOUR NEW HOME IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
