Cecelia Ann German
Help us celebrate Cecelia Ann! Please share your stories and photos, and invite others who remember Cecelia Ann.
After a long and valiant fight, Cecelia Ann German (nee Orff), age 70, was taken into the loving arms of Our Lord on Monday April 5, 2021. She passed peacefully surrounded by her loving family. She was born the daughter of James F. and Juanita M. Orff (nee Sanchez) in Colorado Springs, Colorado, who preceded her in death. Cecelia graduated from St. Mary's High School and earned scholarships from the University of Colorado. After she completed a business degree, she went back to school to earn a Residential Real Estate and Broker license.
A Catholic identity shaped her personal character and dignified living. Belonging to a church community offered comfort and hope throughout her life. Her devout faith was a source of inspiration, courage and served as a model to others she met in the name of the Lord.
Cecelia is survived by her devoted husband of 52 years, Guy German, daughters Cathy Bayens and Cyndi (Garret) Kolb; and five grandchildren: Brielle and Carys Bayens, and Aidan, Noah and Delaney Kolb. Plus, her three adoring sisters and brother; and her many nieces and great nephews whom she loved.
Her life will be honored on Sunday, April 11th by a Visitation from 2:00-4:00 and recitation of the Rosary at 4:00 at Horan & McConaty Family Chapel, Centennial, CO.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be on Monday April 12th at 11:00, celebrated at St. Thomas More Catholic Church, Centennial, CO.
Private interment to follow and her eternal rest shall be in Colorado Springs, CO.
