Cecil was survived by his loving wife, Eveline Stout Stevens; four sons, James (and Donna) Stevens of Albany; Don (and Betty) Stevens of Montpelier, Sammie Stevens, and Gary Stevens, both of Muncie; two daughters, Lois Hayes and Brenda (and Richard, III) Brown of Muncie; one brother, Cletus Stevens of Dale, Ark.; three sisters, Anna Belle Hensley of Dale, Ark., Verna Mae Price of Ravenden, Ark. and Othie Green of Pine Bluff, Ark.; fifteen grandchildren; and a host of other family and friends who mourn his passing.
Funeral services were held at the Parson Mortuary with burial following in the Elm Ridge Cemetery.
THIS IS A TRIBUTE IN MEMORY OF CECIL,
If you could see me now you wouldn't shed a tear, Though you may not understand why I'm no longer there. Remember my spirit, that is the real me because I'm still very much alive, I've just been set free. Oh, if you could only see!
I have held our Father's face and I've touched my Savior's hand. All of Heaven's angels rejoiced as I entered the promised land. Beyond the gates of pearl I've walked on the golden streets.
I've touched the walls of jasper and dipped my foot in the crystal sea. The beauty is beyond words and nothing could compare, I've even seen our Lords mansion and someday I'll meet you there. Let Jesus be your guide because "His Word" will show you the way. So please don't cry because we will meet again someday.
