1929 – 2020

In Our Hearts….

Family of the late Cecilia Pasiciel gathered at Hillside Cemetery this past Tuesday to remember and reflect on the life of a beloved wife, mother, grandmother. She will be deeply missed!

And think of her as living,
In the hearts of those she touched,
for nothing loved is ever lost,
Ans she was loved so much.

Her Life Lived…
Her Life Cherished…
Her Life Honoured.
