To know her was to witness what it meant to truly love...

“Happiness is the soundtrack of my life,” a line from a song and undeniably fitting for our Celeste. To know Celeste was to witness a genuine soul that understood what it meant to truly love family, friends, life, music, dancing and singing. Four weeks after turning 20 years old, our beloved Celeste succumbed to injuries sustained in a car accident. Just four weeks prior, she had registered to become an organ donor.

Celeste believed in the good of people, in generosity, in motivating others and in listening with a gentle and non-judgmental spirit. She freely shared her infectious smile and positive attitude and gave the best of herself always. She had a genuine interest in what you had to say and in the person you were. Those who met her walked away with something special, be it a deeper appreciation for life, hope about your future or a renewed sense of motivation in your potential. She was mature beyond her years, ambitious, humble, articulate, interested in fashion, sensitive, loyal, able to make friends easily and had a zest for life.

Our family has been touched by organ donation, both in giving and receiving. Years prior, Celeste’s grandfather was a kidney recipient from a young man close to her age and our family has not forgotten his generous gift. We are reminded how life comes full circle because both of Celeste’s kidneys (among other organs) were successfully donated. Celeste’s personal choice to be a Giver of Life couldn’t make us more proud. We believe her choice is a reflection of how important it is to give just as quickly as you are to receive. We know that Celeste would be humbled by and grateful to those who are inspired by her choice to be an organ donor or to those who choose to be ‘givers’ in other ways.

    Because there is not a day I do not think of you Because there is not a day I do not miss you Because to me, you are wonderful and continue to be Because there will never be another day Because I will never share tomorrow with you Because I miss you more than I thought I could ever know And because I knew nothing, not even the way I felt Nor the ways one could miss someone, especially in the night Before the dawn dares tread, where my deepest darkest lies I lay in wonder, and pray I never make my fool’s error again I am better for knowing you.

    Celeste...such a sweet and loving girl. (you were about 12 the last time we saw you) Your beaming smile has ALWAYS shined bright. You have been and always will be an inspiration to many. I have been an blood/organ/bone marrow donor for years and I will continue to do so in honor of you. When my adult children come home (Ricky and Aurora) I will share this page with them and hopefully they will be inspired as well. Thank you for all you gave this world, Celeste. You definitely made it a better place! Love and ((((((HUGS)))))) to your family, and to you as well!

    My beautiful Cousin Celeste always gave so much of her self, soul to everyone she met and loved living so much. Just to be around her, you could feel her loving and energetic spirit. After we lost Celeste, I volunteered to become an organ donor. She continues to be an inspiration to us in the beautiful way she lived and loved. I love you Cousin.

    We miss Celeste everyday. We thank God for the years we were blessed with her and look forward to the day we'll dance with her again. Celeste was a genuine example of how to love, and live with abandon. She always inspired us in life, and continues to do so after. Her light will always shine bright.

    What a beautiful example of generosity you showed for others. In your honor and with all my love, Shell
