Celi Paz Presents Ambassador Credentials

Celie Paz de Gonzalez, Belize Ambassador to El Salvador, sent over exclusive pictures to Ambergris Today as she presented her ambassador’s credentials to Belize Prime Minister Hon. Dean Barrow at a recent ceremony and that of Hon. Barrow’s recent visit to the Belize Embassy at El Salvador.

Celie is a San Pedro native and sister of Mayor Elsa Paz whose appointment as ambassador to El Salvador came through Cabinet’s approval in July of last year. She currently resides in El Salvador with her family but visits the Island on a regular basis as a tourist, resident and also in her official diplomatic capacity as Ambassador of Belize to El Salvador.

Celie was born in San Pedro to Gildardo “Daddy” Paz and Celi Marin Paz. She was raised in San Pedro as the youngest of four sisters along with four brothers. Like her sisters and all her brothers, Celie is a graduate of San Pedro R.C. School and San Pedro High School. Early in her life Celie moved to San Salvador, capital of El Salvador where she got married to a native of that country. San Pedro is very proud of Celie Paz de Gonzalez.
