Cecelia had four children; Sheryl Hoyt and her husband Rich, Linda Spearman and her husband Jim, Michael Whitmire and his wife Penny, and Steven Whitmire. There are 8 grandchildren, 16 great grandchildren, and Mimi, Cecelia’s best friend to carry on her memory. Cecelia was a career scale operator for Simplot and retired from the Caldwell plant. Cecelia loved to garden, fish, sew, and do crafts. She once pitched a baseball game for Homedale against Wilder disguised as a boy (Homedale won).
