Cleo was born in San Diego, CA but raised in Crookston, Minnesota. She worked in Pasadena as a Registered Nurse. She soon met the love of her life Tom. They married and raised their children in El Cajon, CA. Cleo is survived by her son (Craig), daughter (Cindy) and their spouses. She has three grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Highlights of her life were her family and friends, a trailer trip around the U.S. (even visiting Cuba) with 3 nursing friends (working when they needed money) and her personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Cleo enjoyed entertaining, cooking and trying out new recipes for family and friends! She also took pleasure volunteering in many roles in the churches she faithfully attended.
The family is comforted knowing she is face-to-face with her Savior and reunited with Tom and other loved ones. She will be greatly missed.
