I saw Cecil on three separate occasions all due to the fact that he was 
passing through my area.   Lucille was with him on two of those occasions. 
I've very happy to have know them both and miss them.

Sadly, Alan, I never met Cecil either, but he was a good internet
friend.  We had a few common acquaintances as he once lived in the
Finger Lakes area, about 40 miles from me.  We used to hunt deer in
some of the same places but did not know each other at that time.
Made good common ground for conversation and reminiscing.
