Jacqueline Cecere Goes Home to be with the Lord
 |
Jacqueline Dean (Smith) Cecere went home to be with her Lord on December 8, 2020 at the age of 64. Jackie's husband of 45 years is Rev. Jim Cecere, pastor of St. Clair Avenue Baptist Church of Hamilton.
Jackie's heart for serving others as the hands and feet of Christ spanned from her hometown of Hamilton, Ohio to a mission field in Africa. She was called “mama” by many and her love, compassion, and no bake cookies will forever remain unparalleled.
Please keep the Cecere family in your prayers during this time.
