Today, Cecile cares for five young people orphaned by the genocide in a home built for her by the government.
Two hours south of Ceciles home in Kigali is the Murambi Genocide Memorial, another stark reminder of lives cut short.
Forty-five thousand Tutsis were killed over three days there at the Murambi technical institute. Today, thousands of bodies have been exhumed and now lie covered in lime on desks in old classrooms.
Eric Gatabari, a guide at Murambi, lost his own family during the genocide. Now he takes groups of school children through the site.
Some Rwandans and other people, sometimes they deny there is genocide of Rwandan Tutsis. So that is why we have decided to preserve it, in order to educate the consequences of bad ideology and ethnic divisionism, he said.
Gatabari said the memorial raises awareness in young Rwandans and ultimately served to promote unity and reconciliation.
