She was predeceased by her parents: Nicholas and Isabella O’Neill; husband Patrick Peters and grandson Sean Green. Cecilia had a long and enjoyable life surrounded by many friends and family, especially those friends at the bingo and card games which she loved to attend.

Cecilia fought a difficult battle with dementia and then digressed to Alzheimer’s, but now she has achieved her gift promised to her at her baptism, and now resides with the angels. Her family will miss her now and forever.
