I'm sitting here now, looking at my 2 daughters remembering you telling me how Cecil always wanted a little girl and how happy he would be. I remember bringing the girls to visit you, and the love you showed for them, the light in your face as you held the youngest members of your family, rocking them and giving them treats. I realize as I am watching my girls play in the snow and holding my husband that I owe you my family. You raised your children well, and Gary raised a wonderful son. Without you my family could never have been. I remember trying to think of a name to honor you and Cecil while I was pregnant and just days before her birth we found the name Cecilyn to honor you and Cecil. You will be missed. We love you, and I thank you for accepting me into your family with so much love
