To the Braid/Schecter family,

As I spotted/immediately recognized Cathy's beautiful face a few moments ago, atop the obituary in the Jewish Exponent acknowledging her recent passing, I literally gasped aloud from shock and sadness. For many years while operating my employment consulting firm, I was fortunate to have magnificent 1-of-a-kind gift packages created personally by Cathy for my numerous corporate clients throughout the Philadelphi business community--and even gladly delivered to their offices by her on my behalf when necessary! I not only marveled at Cathy's unmatched artistic talent, but so appreciated her attention-to-detail, obvious pride and joy in her work, and her support and enthusiasm for the ongoing success of my business, as well. I clearly recall Cathy to be a very warm, kind, sensitive, generous woman. To me, she posessed an undeniable joie de vive!! I am so glad my path crossed with hers, and I will always smile when I think of her.
I am deeply sorry for your loss.
My heartfelt condolences,
Deborah Dymond Markman

I briefly met Cathy at the Seneca Hunt Camp reunion with Steve. She had such beauty and a sparkle in her eyes that I can picture her clearly. Along with the rest of the Uhr family I send our deepest sympathy to the entire family.

Am so sorry to hear of Cathys illness and passing. Though I have not seen her for years,, I thought of her often. As teenagers we were part of a small group of girls who got together on weekends. I hope fond memories, family and friends help you during this most difficult time.

I am heart broken to learn about the loss of sweet Cathy.
She and I taught together at the PASS program our first teaching positions. She was the kindest and sweetest person anyone would want to know. She was such
a devoted mother, wife, daughter and friend.
She blessed us all with her smile.

Cathy meant so much to me.
I was blessed to be her employee at the old Barrel Grocer. Cathy would go out of her way to make others happy.
When my car was totaled in an accident, Cathy would pick me up every morning so I could get to the store to work.
How grateful I am to have had Cathy within my life.
I will miss her dearly.
My condolences go to Steve, Jennifer, Ashley, and family.
I was just thinking about Cathy the other day....even after all of these years...Cathy made a deep impression upon me which I will never forget.
The best time of my life was working for Steve and Cathy at the store.
It never felt like it was work, because Cathy made it fun.
I will never forget Dear Cathy,
With my utmost sympathy, and my thoughts are of you.

To Steve, Ashley, and Jennifer:
I met Cathy in 2005 when we were working on the NAEP test. I was a "newbie" and very frightened. But Cathy was there to lean on. She was always ready to lend a helping hand. She was a caring, loving, and gentle person who loved her family above all else. I will truly miss her.

Ashley, Jennifer, and Steve,

I was so sad to hear about the loss of your mom and wife. I haven't seen her for quite some time, but I always remember her saying, "How You Doin" :). Thinking about all of you, and you're in my thoughts.

January 21, 2013

I extend my heartfelt sympathies to all of you. I met Cathy this time last year at Magee Rehab. I was immediately drawn to her. We became friends and would speak often after we were discharged. I was impressed by her positive outlook. She was an inspiration to me. I know she is now looking over me while I continue with my own battle. I have an angel to guide me. I will never forget her. Sincerely, Terri Kelly.
