Celeste was a wonderful lady. We met in 1985 as she is my son Braxton's grandmother. I remember her pleasant spirit and she always had a sense of humor. She could be a firecracker when provoked, always protective of her loved ones. May she rest in peace.

Celeste and I have been good buddies for the last 6 or 7 years, going out to eat and to the casinos and visiting back and forth. Health problems for both of us have curtailed our activities for the last year, but we still stayed in touch. I visited her right before Christmas and took her Christmas and birthday gifts to her. I will miss her a lot and feel sympathy for her family. I cannot attend her visitation or service due to illness, and I will miss seeing her family. My love and condolences to all of them.

Celeste was my dear friend whom I missed every day since she moved to TX. Heaven has gained an angel & now Celeste can be taken care of instead of taking care of others. She will be missed terribly by her friends & family. Celeste loved & treasured her family and would do anything for her friends. My heart goes out to all her precious family! We all lost a wonderful, generous woman. I love you, Celeste!
