Celina Marie Parra

her parents, Christina Bertha Harper and Charles Steven Parra.

Celina was a beautiful baby girl who loved singing, dancing, playing dress-up, and watching

Disney movies. Celina spent her early childhood through teenage years in Pacoima and moved to

Lancaster, California when she was 15. She had her first baby, Celina, whom she adored at 16.

She later met the love of her life, Jamar McNair, and had two more children, Gabriel McNair and

Angell McNair. Celina admired her children and loved being a mother. She worked as a

cashier/waitress most of her life. Celina enjoyed spending time with her family, watching the

Golden Girls and Friends, and listening to music, especially Beyonce.

Celina was such a girly girl. Her favorite color was pink. She enjoyed anything related to

fashion, such as clothing, jewelry, make-up, hair, and nails.

Towards the end of her life, Celina worked hard to find her place in the world and gain

independence. Celina was proud of her accomplishments. She was silly, goofy, and always found

a way to make those around her smile while in her company. Celina was preceded in death by

her nephew Anthony Wilson.

Celina leaves to mourn her three children Celina, Gabriel, and Angell; her mother Christina, her

father Charles, five sisters Luevnia, Christina, Rosie, Serene, and Sierra, her brother Steven five

nieces Nyeilla, Gracey, Mia, Isabella, Samantha, her nephew Daniel and a host of other relatives

and friends.

Celina was a Daughter, Sister, Mother, Aunt, Cousin, and Friend to those around her, and she

will truly be missed.
