Excuse the overt religiosity of this post, but I just can’t let the Feast of St. Cecilia, patroness of music, pass without acknowledgement.

My maternal grandmother kept a picture of St. Cecilia above her bed, and my wife and I were blessed to inherit this image.

I have a great aunt, Cecelia, who passed away at the age of 21 (from tetanus) and a daughter, Cecilia Rose, who died on the day of her birth, August 8, 2007.  May all Cecilias dance together in eternity.
