Céline was born on July 21st, 1945 in Armagh, Northern Ireland where she spent her formative years. After she attended school at Sacred Heart in Ireland, she moved to London, England at age 18. She later met her first husband, with whom she had two children, Tara and Slean. They moved to the United States in 1968 where she first became a foreign exchange bank teller at C&S. She eventually found a successful career as a real estate agent in Atlanta which spanned over 30 years. She was known for her hard work, keen eye for a good investment and beautiful Irish accent.

More than anything, Céline was a devoted mother & wife.
