Remember the blueberry cake you always made?
My mom always tried to make it but it was never quite the same.
Remember all the times you took me to the movies?
We would always share a bag of Reese’s pieces.
Or the night’s I’d sleepover and we’d play board games?
Trouble and Yahtzee will never be the same.
Remember the time you took me to the pool and I met some of your friends?
I wish we could have done that again.
Remember when you taught me to tell time—
And helped me count by telling me you loved me all the way up to 1099?
I used to make you watch Babes in Toyland over and over again with me
And you always used to surprise me with a bag of cotton candy
I always loved sleeping in your water bed
You would make a ton of waves for me to tread
Now that you are gone a piece of us goes too
But I can smile now because I know Bubba is with you
Jones Ave will never shed the same light
But your sprit will live on every day and every night
I’m sure your voice will be missed on magic 106.7
And I bet you’ll be playing the lottery even in heaven
Don’t worry Auntie we’ll make sure Morgan knows every little detail about you
And she’ll love you just as much as we do

Cathy, you were one of the nicest people I have ever met. You were such a nice mother-in-law to our daughter Angela. You were also a terrific gramma to Morgan. When Felicia was very sick in the hospital for 2 wks in Feb 08, you and your family were the most thoughtful people we have ever met. We appreciated it so much and we will never forget that. You will be very missed and will always be thought of in our lives. We will always make Bryan a part of our family forever!!!! Love Linda, Tony & Felicia

Cathy was a wonderful person and her goodness will continue to give you all courage to go on. She is still with you in spirit, but will be missed. I have known Cathy as a swimming companion for many, many years. It will not be the same without her. She will continue to live in our hearts and conversations. She was an example of love and kindness for all of us.. You are in my thoughts and prayers especially her mom. Life is not fair.
