In Memory of Ceil


Well into her 80s,  our spunky, adventurous, lovable neighbor came with us one day to haul lobsters, back when we still had our lobster boat, Fearless.  




She was always so proud of this moment and I think this one of her, may be my favorite.



Or maybe it is this one.



I remember how much fun she had showing these pictures to her friends and family. I can still hear the laughter and excitement in her voice as she related the story of that day.  She told how we made sure she wore a tightly wrapped life jacket and had even put a whistle on it for her, just in case she got lost!  



Thanks Ceil, for all the memories.  The pleasure was all ours and we will never forget you.

Such a lovely tribute - and a lovely lady. We are all made richer by the friends we gather - and the memories we keep in our hearts.
