PERSONAL OBITUARY ESSAY

Cedric Christopher Hart was born April 1, 1996 in Dallas, Texas to Cedric Hart and Claudette Hart. He died on April 21, 2072. As a kid he was very mischievous and always into something he should not have been. He used to climb on the counters and get into baby powder and pour it on himself. Cedric always found a way to irritate his sister. He used to go in her room and bug her. He did it because he loved her and that is how he held conversations with her.

Cedric attended R.L. Thornton Elementary school from 2001-2007 and H.W. Longfellow from 2007-2010. He also attended Skyline High School and graduated with the class of 2014. At skyline he attended the Architecture cluster under the teachings of Peter Goldstein and Tom Cox. After High School he went to the University of Texas to study architecture and graduated with an M. Arch. This took him 7 years to accomplish.

After college he did 2 years of interning for Joel Fitzpatrick Design and went on to start his own architecture firm in Dallas. He lived there his entire life and worked for 30 years until he retired. He and his wife, Monica, built there home on 15 acres of land they owned. They had two children named Derrick Hart and Jenae Hart.

His firm was very successful, pulling in over 30,000 customers and starting ten more firms in various cities such as Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Miami, and four other U.S. cities. With his success came fame and fame became riches. He began to build houses and buildings internationally starting more architecture firms in Paris, France; London, England; and Rome, Italy.

 After his retirement he spent his days traveling with his wife and kids, enjoying the simple things in life and practicing to become a reverend at his church, Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship. He died in Dallas of natural causes at the age of 76. He was a great man who loved his family and will be forever missed by family and fans of his architecture as well.
