I send my love and condolences to the whole family. Although I can't be there, please know that I'm thinking of you all. My heart aches for Cathy's loss; she truly was a beautiful person inside and out. So sweet, so caring, always a kind word to say. I still remember and have the emails of her telling me how grateful she was for me doing the MS Walk in her name every year. She'd always tell me, You truly are my HERO! The truth is she was MY HERO! What she endured and how she fought over all these years is truly remarkable.
There is NO question she touched everyone she met and will be forever missed. I am so thankful she was able to see her baby grow up to be an amazing young lady.
But even more thankful to know she is finally at peace and pain free.
Katie, remember that you have a whole big family that loves you to pieces and we are here for you no matter how far. Mommy held on for you-strongest woman I have ever known. Know you are blessed beyond words. We are all better people, because of Cathy in our lives. May she Rest in Peace.
Love you,
Your cousin Melissa
