Ceil Bonczkiewicz Obituary
Born in Blakley, the daughter of the late George and Anna Novack Darlak, she was a member of St. Mary's Visitation Church, Dickson City, and a former member of its Christian Mother's Society. Ceil was educated in Blakely schools and, before retirement, she was employed as a seamstress in the local garment industry.
She was a loving and caring mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who enjoyed traveling with her family, and she once met Bob Barker at the "Price is Right" while on a trip to California. She loved to play bingo, Yahtzee, work on puzzle books and go to the casinos. She was a wonderful cook, and she liked canning garden vegetables. She relaxed by sitting on her front porch. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends.

She was also preceded in death by a son, Mark Bonczkiewicz; sisters, Blanche Pielewski, Sophie Yausm and Katherine Bochan; and brothers, Michael, John and George Darlak.
