Obituary Cecilia Anne Lynes, 59, of Morehead City, passed away on Tuesday, November 24, 2020 at Carteret Health Care in Morehead City. Cecilia grew up in New Jersey and graduated from Bridgewater-Raritan High School East. She then went on to earn a bachelors degree in fashion from the University of Delaware and attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. She enjoyed a career with Jockey Hosiery, Int. Cecilia was a warm and loving person who cared deeply for others. Despite her suffering in recent years she kept a smile on her face and her first concern was the welfare of her family and friends. Cecilia always gave a big hello to anyone she met, and it was personal connections and familial bonds that sustained her and were her priority. It was well known that Cecilia loved anything that was purple and sported purple hair most recently. Cecilia loved summers and fishing on Lake Champlain in Vermont, and was always the first to pitch into the work at the start and end of each summer season. In earlier years Cecilia loved to golf and ski and practiced each with great enthusiasm. She was also a big fan of Notre Dame and never missed a football game of the Fighting Irish.
