Not sure what to say?

Your art inspired, your laugh contagious. You were a very special person, sister, mother, grandmother and daughter. I will never forget that contagious laugh. My heart breaks for Kelly, who was your best friend. I wish for healing and wellness for your entire family during this time. I love you Cathy.

I am sorry I can't be there in person Shelly and family but please know how much I love you, am praying for all of you at this time of loss.

We all miss you, you are very much loved

So sorry for your loss.

Such a young age to leave loved ones-will pray for you all. Sweet sorrow is all I can think of sadly.

My husband drove me 8 hours from Western NY to take a painting class with Cathy and Shelly. She made such an impression on me that day; not just her talent but warmth, patience and kindness. My thoughts & prayers are with all family members.

Keeping you all in my prayers. Your family showed such love, grace and took amazing care of her. I'm sure she felt that love greatly...the ultimate gift you could give her. Glad you had the time up north with her...beautiful memories!
To be absent from the body is to present with the Lord.
Much love and my deepest sympathy to you all.

Prayers to family, she was such a sweet girl growing up I was her neighbor, may peace follow the family during this difficult time

My deepest sympathy to Cathys family will keep all in my prayers.
