Aunt Ceil never had children of her own, yet there were so many of us that she cared for as if we were.

The staff at Bethany Village gave such gentle care and love to Aunt Ceil and became part of our family over these last years. We regard you highly for the people that you are, the work you do and the manner in which you do it.
Ceil Fowler was feisty, beautiful, kind, mischievous and oh so loving. Her spirit will live on as we carry her in our hearts for the rest of our days. And the next time you have a glass of warm coke, you can think of Aunt Ceil.
