Emila Celestin, 75, of Lebanon, passed away Monday, September 29, 2025 at home.

Born in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti on February 27, 1950, Emila was a daughter of the late Antenor and Paulina ( Polidor) Celestin. She enjoyed the simple things in life, from watching movies, or listening to the funky sounds of the 70's, to coloring on her Ipad, but she also liked to shake things up a little and play the slots on her phone. Her hobbies brought her joy and those that knew her will remember her fondly with that joy.

Emila is survived by her brother, Riolet Celestin, husband of Marie; sister, Marie Severe; three nieces: Hervinah Celestin, Vanessa Pierre, wife of Gary Furnace, Sarah Broderick, wife of Niko Broderick, and Johanne Senat; eight nephews: Wiskay Pauleus, husband of Jennifer Scaramuzzino, Jiverson Pauleus, husband of Stephanie Rivera, Reginald Celestin, Irwing Senat, Carlos M. Senat, Riolet Senat, Lucien M. Senat, and Robert- Guerdy Celestin; three great nieces: Eden Furnace, Ari Furnace, Gia Furnace; two brothers-in-law, Patrick Casimir and Jean Joseph; and sister-in-law, Nadine Casimir.
