Cecelia T. Whelski, 75, Pottsville died Tuesday evening at Rosewood Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Schuylkill Haven.

Born March 28, 1944 in Pottsville, she was the daughter of the late Paul and Catherine G. (Leonard) Whelski.

Cecelia was active in volunteering her time.  She would often be seen at the St. Patrick's Soup Kitchen, St. John's Fish Dinners, or one of the many activities at the First Baptist Church.  Even though she was a member of St. John the Baptist RC Church, she attended the First Baptist Church.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by brothers Joseph and Paul; her twin sister Catherine; and a set of twin brothers who died in infancy.

She is survived by a sister Susan Killmer, Pottsville; a brother John Whelski, Pottsville; several nieces and nephews; and many dear friends including her friend Michelle.

A celebration of Cecelia's life will be held Saturday 11 AM November 2 at Schlitzer Allen Pugh Funeral Home 515 W. Market St. Pottsville with Rev.
