He loved his family, the outdoors, his time at the lake, a good book, and throughout his life, his many dogs. In high school, Cecil was involved in the youth band and Cadets.

He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Ruth Ethel (Mouland); his daughters Deborah (Alex) Doggett and Holly (Philip) Smith, both of Hunt’s Point, Beth Stuart (Stephen Armstrong) of Tusket, Kim (Mark) Hachey of Italy Cross.
