   Millirens were our neighbors as I was growing up! I spent many hours playing at their farm with Susan and Sandi.
   Cecilia was always kind and welcoming. I send my sincerest condolences at this time to the entire family!

   I remember my Aunt Cecilia as a person who almost always smiled and seemed to me to be selfless- trying to do the right thing. Family was her number one priority. RIP.
