Mrs. Ceil Hall greeted everyone who walked through the front doors at the 11am Mass on Sunday. Her bright smile was usually followed by the words, "Welcome to our beautiful church!" Ceil also was a member of the Sewing Group making prayer shawls for the ill and receiving blankets for the children served by the Christ Child Society. She loved to make things "nice" -- skirting tables and making sure the right colors and decorations were on hand for every parish event.
After a long illness Ceil died on Friday, February 10th. Her funeral Mass will be celebrated on Saturday, February 18th followed by burial at Knollwood Cemetery. Calling hours are at Brown Forward Funeral Home on Friday, February 17th, from 5-7 pm.
Ceil's late husband, Walter, was her partner in ushering and greeting and in every aspect of their lives. Every time she mentioned his name her eyes filled with tears. May the Lord reunite them in His Kingsom forever.
