She also attended the University of Dayton where she met and married R. Edwin Alexander II (deceased). She raised her family in Kettering, Ohio.

CeCe lived her life to the fullest and loved her family fiercely! She enjoyed attending all of her grandchildren's activities and sports, always being their biggest cheerleader. Many of our local parishes benefitted from her service, involvement, and outreach. She enjoyed being part of the Red Hat Club and loved going to Rec West to play cards and games. CeCe was independent, generous, and loving, touching the lives of so many people. Her presence, kindness, tenacity, and sense of humor all allowed everyone she encountered to smile. She was truly remarkable, and always willing to help others, and was a beautiful light in this world!
