Loving and devoted wife to Don Brooks, mother to Lori-Anne Vaidelis (Ray Byers), Barbara Vaidelis (Brad Daigneault), and Dante Porter, special grandmother to Dustin, Raiden, Savannah, Judith, Kassity, Kallie, and Karly. She will be greatly missed by her siblings James, Helen (Jean Pierre Gingras), Sylvia, Amelia, Marina, and Norbert McComber as well as her large network of extended family and dear friends. Cicilia will be remembered for her courage, bright spirit, sense of humour, generosity, and hospitality. She was a gifted cook and took pride in her ability to organize and host parties and gatherings. A close friend to many, Cicilia was known for her vivacious zest for life and warm demeanor. Cicile loved music, to sing and dance; a love which was instilled in her daughters and granddaughters alike. She was a proud member of the Aundeck Omni Kaning First Nation and a fierce self-advocate. Over the years, Cicilia courageously battled her illness with an indescribable amount of will and determination, inspiring others with her bravery.
A private family service was held at the Jackson and Barnard Funeral Home.
