Arrendondo, Celina Denongean Nov. 17, 1973 to 17 August 17, 2011 After a valiant fight with ovarian cancer, the Lord called her to be by His side. Celina Arredondo, born in San Diego to Jesus and Celina Denogean, was a precious gift to her family and her mother's "little girl." She graduated from San Diego High School in 1991. Upon graduation, she faithfully worked for her father as a clerk and a bookkeeper in the family's auto shop. She later worked for Pacific Rim Mechanical. In 2000, she met the love of her life, Paul Arredondo, Jr., and married him in 2004. In 2008, she gave birth to a son, Matthew. A terrific mother, who loved her family unconditionally, Celina left an indelible imprint in the hearts of those that met her. She is survived by her husband, Paul, and son, Matthew Aiden, 4 years old; her parents, Jesus and Celina Denogean; brother and sister-in-law, Jesus and Christina Denogean; nephews, Junior and Alex; in-laws, Paul and Emilia Arredondo; brother-in-laws, Josue Arredondo, Sam Arredondo; and her sister-in-law and her husband, Susie Arredondo and Ron Tranbarger. Mass will be held at Our Lady of Guadalupe, San Diego on Tuesday 10 a.m. Let us remember we are on earth on borrowed time. Published in San Diego Union-Tribune on August 23, 2011
