I will always remember my aunt Catherine very fondly - a woman of high integrity, hard-working, dedicated to family, and a very good cook!

My parents thought a lot of Catherine and Paul. They were neighbors of ours for as long as I can remember. The Blairs had the house when I was small and I remember the move. Catherine would call for us to baby sit the older kids. 4 or 5. There were a lot of you, and you were pretty good kids! Seems like the dirty diapers would always come on our shift!!! I'm sure the number that she changed went into the thousands. Sweet memories.

It was sad to see Catherine's obituary. Mom and Dad thought the world of her and Paul. It brought back memories of babysitting for some of the older kids. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family.

My Aunt Catherine made the world a better place. She was a woman of integrity. She was caring. She was a hard worker. She persisted through adversity. She had a positive attitude and a smile to go with it. She had a great sense of humor. And what a good cook she was too! My thoughts are with the Rogers and Peterson families at this painful time.
