Cecelia was a member at Holy Family Catholic Church while living in Visalia and St. Rita’s Catholic Church in Tulare. She loved being active with the church community meetings and a catechism teacher.
In 1993 Cecelia started a long career working at Central Air Conditioning. It was a truly a “labor of love” for her as she enjoyed everyone she worked with, seeing them as family. After retiring in 2018, she missed the busyness of the office and loved to hear about how the employees were doing.
Cecelia was the “Emma of Jane Austen” to our family, always bringing couples together. She showed her love for others by cooking and sharing her wonderful food. Her famous turkey stuffing, menudo, tamales, tortillas and bread are some of the items we will miss about her.
