Her grace and courage in the face of adversity were a testament to her unfaltering spirit and admirable character. Celeste was a Master of Culinary Arts, delighting everyone with her skills in the kitchen during her tenure as a chef at a local hospital. She was a firm believer in the philosophy of "dress presentable, not shabby," a testament to her love for life, beauty, and the joy she found in the simple act of living each day to its fullest. Celeste was a loving wife to Vern Ziemann, and a doting mother to her sons, Andrew and Austin. Her love for her family was immeasurable, her devotion to them unwavering. She was the heart of their home, her warmth and love radiating through every corner. Celeste is preceded in death by her parents, Cyreen and Adeline, and her loving son, Austin. It is this love for her family and friends that leaves an indelible mark on all those who knew her. She is survived by her husband, Vern; her son, Andrew; and her cousins, Marykay and Connie.
