When Taffy Trevithick and I were pals at Dannemann's store back in the late 1960's, I talked with Catherine many times. What a generous and calm lady she was. I didn't know that Taffy had passed on until I read the paper this morning. My thoughts are with all the family. L. Peat O'Neil (Peaty O'Neil)
