You and your family are in my heart and mind. My condolences on the passing of your mother.

Aunt Catherine was such a people person, so much fun to talk with and always enjoyed our visits. I was always amazed at her memory of all the family members names. Whenever I would call her she would go down the list and ask how each were doing. I enjoyed visiting her and Uncle Boobin at their lovely home in Canton Georgia. They will be missed; however, not forgotten. Love, Judy Bugs Rodriguez Troffo

I didnt know Ms. Catherine Rodriguez, but I knew her son, Don, and his wife, Deb Rodriguez. We met at Grace Baptist Church and have been friends of theirs for so long now. Don has been a joy to know and be friends with. On hearing of the passing of his Mom, I had to express my condolences and well wishes.

Catherine was like a second mother to me. She has been in my life since I was three or four years. I have so many special memories of staying with her and my big brother, Boobin and their kids when they lived in Calvert Homes. Her passing leaves a big empty space in my heart. I loved her very much. "Little Catherine"
