Cecil was an active member in his community and knew no stranger. He was well known and liked by everyone who met him. He enjoyed hunting and fishing, along with working on his land and taking care of his garden and animals. Cecil loved spending time with his family. He took pride in putting together cookouts and playing music. He enjoyed different outings with his friends, such as playing music at the Stanardsville Fire Department and going camping with Jimmy and family. Cecil was a talented worker and there wasn’t a trade he couldn’t pick up on; he was always willing to help in any way he knew how.
Cecil will be greatly missed by his friends and loved ones. There will be a memorial service held at a future date, and the information regarding the service will be posted on FaceBook under “Memorial for Cecil Lam” when the time comes.
Preddy Funeral Home of Gordonsville is handling arrangements.
