Cathy fought a long battle trying to be around for family and friends. She always had a smile even though she had to endure a lot of pain. I hugged her last at the funeral home after the loss of her Mom.
Since then when we talked on the phone her spirit seemed broken. Bless you Joe for always being there for her. She is out of her pain now and I'm sure she has a smile for you and all who cared for her. Cherish your memories...and I'm sure she waits for us to join her and those who are now in a better place.
Sincerely.

Joe and Stephanie, my prayers and love are with you both in your time of loss. Joe, you and cathy were just perfect for each other and we all know how much she loved you and you loved her. You should both know that she is with Jesus now and they are both watching over you and still loving you with all their heart. I will miss Cathy very much, and her smiling face. She always had a smile for you no matter how bad she was feeling and she always had something good talk about that would make you laugh. I loved her very much and always will.

God bless you both,

Aunt Virginia

Feel no guilt in laughter,she knows how much care .Feel no sorrow in a smile that she's not here to share.You cannot grieve forever,she wouldn't want you to.She would want you to carry on, the way you always do.So talk about the good times,and the way you showed you cared.The days you spent together,all the happiness you shared.For if you keep these moments,you will never be apart.For she will live forever locked safe within your heart.

Stephanie and family -

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Every time I think of Cathy I think of her as the "cool chick". She was full of life and love and made my childhood and teenage years ones I will never forget. What a wonderful lady! I will never forget her.

God bless,

Heather

Dear Stephanie, the loss of your mother is so sad. Just know that she had you there for her and with her, in her moments of need. I bet she could not had asked for a dearer or sweeter child, or one she could be more proud of. God Bless you all as you go through this together, may it make you stonger and love each other deeper, although your lost is great you have so much left to cherish.
