Having accepted CHRIST as her SAVIOR, she was a loving and devoted member of Third Macedonia Baptist Church, as well as attended other local churches in the surrounding area. She was previously married to the late Gerald Rocquemore.

Celia Rocquemore was a mother, a sister, a grandmother, an aunt and a close friend to all! A beautiful woman called by many nicknames and titles, which was determined by the relationship one had with her. If you were a close family member, you called her “Sister”, “Baby Sister”, even “Celia Mae”, or “Auntie Red Bird”! If you knew her for the woman who celebrated life and lived life abundantly, you may have called her “Red” or “Red Bird”. She had an affectionate love for her family, the church and children! She loved to cook and feed others in the community. Celia M. Rocquemore operated in the gifts of help, always extending resources and finances to those in need.

After passing on March 15, 2026, she was joyfully welcomed by those who had transitioned before her, which included Sylvester Ceasar, Artis Ralph Ceasar, Thomas Ceasar, and Helen Ceasar.
