Bonnie, John and Melanie:
I am very sorry for your loss. I hope that fun memories of Aunt Cele will help you through this difficult time. Growing up in California, I always felt more distant from relatives than I would have liked, but it was always fun to see everyone when we did wander out to Illinois and Indiana. Aunt Cele was especially fun, not just for her tremendous sense of humor but also for her memory! I learned a lot

Aunt Cele was especially fun, not just for her tremendous sense of humor but also for her memory! I learned a lot more about the pranks that dad and his brothers and sisters played on each other and the trouble they got into, usually fun, from Aunt Cele than I did from dad, that's for sure! I am really glad to have gotten to write back and forth to Aunt Cele in recent years. I always read her letters over and over and kept them to look at later too. Her stories were a lot of fun and I got to learn about what was going on "back east" as we called the midwest out here.

One thing is for certain: memories of Aunt Cele's sense of humor and kindness will always be remembered by everyone who knew her.

Love, Brad

John-

I am so sorry for your loss! Please know that my thoughts are with you and your family. I know you will always have fond memories to hang on to...I heard lots of stories when we worked together at STAR. May God be with you and your family.

Thank you, Edith, for serving our country. May God bless you and your family and may you rest in peace.

We will truly miss seeing Aunt Cele at the family reunions. I learned a geat deal about my own mother through Aunt Cele. I use to think my mom was a perfect angel until Aunt Cele gave me the low down on all the trouble that they would get into when they were kids. Aunt Lois can back me up on this. Aunt Cele gave me the pet name of Lu Lu Belle when I was a kid and it

Aunt Cele gave me the pet name of Lu Lu Belle when I was a kid and it has still stuck to this day. It was a real treat to get to go over to Indiana (with Grandma Ackerson) and spend time with Cele and Ray. Aunt Cele we will truly miss you and hope that you are having a great reunion with all your loved ones up above. Lu Lu Belle

I lived with Aunt Cele , Uncle Ray, Bonnie and John for @1 1/2 years. They were special in so many ways to open their hearts and home to me. Aunt Cele would teach me some Romanian(yets moona lay dem bozanard cuz moonka padookey ongalay) Bonnie can tell you what that means! She will probably laugh! Aunt Cele was a very loving Aunt, where she could find no fault in her nieces other Aunts always seemed to point fingers! She

Aunt Cele was a very loving Aunt, where she could find no fault in her nieces other Aunts always seemed to point fingers! She shared her humor, love and heart very easily! We always went to church on Sundays and she always had dinner in the oven when we got home! It was always delicious! Her and Uncle Ray would always tell jokes, but they never told the same ones by each other! It's like they made a pact, You can have this one and I'll take that one!! Aunt Cele was warm and always made me feel like one of her own kids. She would whisper and tell me little secrets when we were together in their little grocery store. I was blessed to have extra time with my Aunt Cele and Uncle Ray. God was looking out for all of us when He sent them into our lives! Thank you Bonnie, John and Mel for sharing your home and parents with me so long ago when I really needed guidance! May God Bless you all!! Love Diane

Edith was Evelyn Jane Shoudel's roommate. She was such sweet lady. She always made us laugh. She will be missed alot. May she rest in peace.

(We were Evelyn's brother and sister-in-law)

I met Edith when she and my sister Evelyn Jane Shoudel became roommaates at Heritage Park. She was a lovely lady and was such a good friend to my sister and she was always trying to help Evelyn. The Lord is holding her now and she is well and at peace.

In loving memory of a sweet aunt. She was always brave and great. She will be sadly missed, but long remembered.
