Cecelia O. Hamilton, age 98 years, of Street, MD died peacefully at the home of

her daughter at 11:22 pm on Saturday, March 15, 2025. She was the wife of

Born in Scarborotown, Harford County, MD on November 27, 1926, she was a

store until retiring in 1982. She attended Highland High School and was a lifetime

member of the Emory United Methodist Church, serving on many committees

including treasurer of the memorial fund, treasurer of the cemetery, treasurer of

the United Methodist Women, and also the financial secretary of the church.

Celie's life was centered around her family and her church, but she also found joy

in giving her time helping in the community, including visiting shut-ins.

A generous lady, she was known for her gladiolas, apple bread and fudge, all of

which was shared with others.
