CeCe was a 6 year old who was the most loving sister to two younger siblings, Lillie and Rose. Being the oldest, she was the leader of the pack and loved to let Mom know when someone was not following the rules. Her newest obsession was playing golf with her Dad and when asked how she would describe herself, she said, "I love animals, although I am not too pleased with Donald," - Donald is her standard poodle who tended to get in her way pretty often.

CeCe fought against DIPG and took her treatments in stride. She attended kindergarten as much as she could, in between her clinical trials. She enjoyed swimming, going to as many parks and playgrounds as possible and spending time with her besties. When she was at home, you would most certainly find her painting or creating a beautiful piece of art as she planned to be an artist when she grew up. Her name, Crescentia, means "to grow" and we saw her grow and blossom despite her diagnosis.
