Catherine "Cathy" Basso

We think of Cathy often. Her grace and gentleness remind us of both Cathy´s mom and Bob´s mom

I was incredibly fortunate to know the Basso family growing up in Battle Creek and worked at Palermo's during college. During that time I felt such a part of this amazing family and left with lifelong lessons and memories. Mrs. Basso was truly special and the epitome of love and warmth. She leaves her legacy through her family and people she touched. Sending so much love to you all!

Sending condolences to her family during this time.
She was a beautiful woman whom I had the privilege of knowing for the time I had. Palermo's was my favorite restaurant growing up & have fond memories celebrating birthdays & other holidays & celebrations there. Thank you so much for those memories.

Dear Basso Family, Our deep sympathy on the passing of your mother. Cathy and I met at St. Joseph School as my son David and Angie shared the same grade. Cathy's warmth and generosity of spirit gave me encouragement and strength. She always had a smile and a laugh to share. Her love and kindness continue through all of her children and, I am sure, her grandchildren. What a beautiful bouquet she has in heaven of all your faces and your love. Her celebration of a new life with our Lord...

My parents (Wayne and Becky) and I had many happy memories at Palermo´s with their Navy friends. Cathy always made me feel so special when she showed me the kitchen and let me use the soda machine and sweeper. She was so kind and warm! Thinking of Tom and the Basso family, I´m so sorry for your loss.

My late husband and I enjoyed many happy meals at the "Palermo" restaurant. We were weekly patrons, because the food was so good. My condolences to the Basso family.

My heart goes out to the Basso family, she will definitely be missed. When i use to deliver to there restaurant, they would always make sure i would take lunch with me. Thom. Love you both.

Tom, Tommy, Teresa, Angie and Gina, There are not enough words to tell you how sorry I am. Cathy was one of a kind, a true loving soul. I consider myself very lucky to have been part of the Palermo family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless and comfort you. All my love, Teri
