Uncle Cecil went to Heaven

My famous "Uncle Cecil" lost his battle to Cancer this week. Cecil went to be with the Lord while resting comfortably at home with Aunt Lyn on August 2nd. Cecil would have been 65 years old this October. Cecil was diagnosed with Cancer the same week as Grandginny, this past March. It was a tiresome battle for both, and we are happy to know they are now PAIN FREE! We are having a celebration of his life on Saturday, September 4th. I will always remember my uncle's booming laugh, hilarious stories, and big bear hugs. One of my favorite memories is taking him to his first Cardinals game last year. He truly enjoyed himself and became quite a fan these past few seasons. (Yes, it's true--he jumped on the Cardinal bandwagon with the rest of AZ). I was fortunate to have Larry Fitzgerald sign Cecil's jersey this summer while visiting the Cardinals at Training Camp. Larry wished our family the best, and was very sincere after hearing of his passing. Cecil never got a chance to wear the jersey, it will now become a very special item to us all. We love and miss you Cecil, you and Grandginny be good up there ;)
