CRESPIN-KHOU -- Cecilia (Cece) Crespin-Khou, 33, was called home by our Heavenly Father on Thursday, April 23, 2009, after a four-year courageous battle with cancer, which she fought tooth and nail and always with a smile on her face. Cecilia is survived by her loving husband Meng Khou, who never left her side; loving son Vincent Crespin; parents Cecil and Leticia Crespin; brother Mark Crespin, nephew Luke whom she adored; Grandma Eulalia Leyba; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and countless friends. She was preceded in death by her grandparents Macedonio Leyba, Rose Baker, and Frank Crespin, Sr. Cecilia who was loved by all who were blessed to know her and will be truly missed. She fought hard and never showed her pain and was ready with a smile on her face to console us rather than give into her pain.

Her pharmacist Marcus (you're the best) and to all the wonderful doctors, nurses, receptionists, and staff at Lovelace Oncology and Lovelace Hospital who not only provided the best care but also demonstrated their love and support to Cecilia and her family.
