To Jamie and family,
My heart felt condolences to all. Speaking of hearts, cecil's was overflowing with kindness,caring, and humor. Although your dad & I weren't very close, I can see where you, Jamie, got it from. Through our mutual friend, Russell Roe, I was able to get to know you and some of your family. We had some really great times together, maybe take a minute to remember those, ie: ice fishing, snowmobiling, garage time, & of course a few beers! Having said that, remember your dad as being a part of that, as he was a part of you.
Sincerely,
Leslie (Roe) Muir

My condolence to the family as Cecil was such a big part of my growing up years. Such a great friend to my parent Polly & Dick, "The property" Penguin Snowmobile Club or just socializing. I will remember his laugh & smiling eyes. He will be remembered fondly by the Nesbitts

So very sorry for your loss. Cecil was a kind and caring man. He was the best potato peeler and vegetable cutter I ever saw. He made my moose hunts so much more enjoyable with his presence. He always shared Jane’s cookies and preserves and always had a bottle stashed in case we got a moose. I will remember him with great fondness.
Bill MacDonald and family.

Cecil was my neighbour who lived directly behind me. He would sit on his back porch and laugh at at my neighbour, Lynne and my self pulling vines that had invaded one of my trees. We would sit in his front port he would tell me stories of his snowmobiling and truck driving.
I saddened at his passing. Will miss all his stories.
Bonnie Horn.

Dear Jane and family,
Lots of good memories of Dad (Dusty), and Cecil with the other truck drivers. Cecil was a wonderful, kind and funny man, who always looked out for me as a teenager.
Mom and I are so sorry for your loss.

Dear Jane Anne and family
So sorry to read about Cec , such a great guy. He will be missed for sure. Lots of good memories from when Ross and the rest of the gang would meet at the donut shop in Fittons Plaza. I worked at the TD Bank and would be there getting my coffee and would tease them about being at the sewing circle.
Thinking of you and sending hugs.
Paul and Kathy Gray
