Celeste loved cooking, gardening, and quilting. She could often be found in her yard with Roland tending to her flowers, chickens, donkeys, and beloved dog, Francois. She taught quilting and had regular meetings with the Birds of a Feather and Queen Bee Quilting Clubs. If you received a quilt from Celeste, cherish it always, take care when washing, and don’t use it as a dog bed.
