Not sure what to say?

Hard to believe it's been five years. Still think of Cathy often and miss her infectious laugh and sunny outlook no matter the circumstances. Blessings to Jim and the girls and now Grandbaby. She is surely and sorely missed by all who were lucky to know her.

Heard something today that grieving can be a life long journey but you can go on. Still remember Cathy with love. Pray for Jim and their daughters. Missing never goes away. Hugs Linda Watkins. Bill in spirit.

Remembering that awful day and missing you very much my friend. Sending peace to Jim, Bridget and Megan

Cathy always remembered as a loving, sincere person. Sadly missed still. RIP

I just heard about Cathy's passing. She was my sales rep for years. She was the best in the business! And I proudly call her friend! She made sure we were always well taken care of; I'm sure she was that way with all she did. My heart aches for your family! My favorite story she told was about the bunk beds on Christmas morning. She was so proud of Jim's craftsmanship. Our kids are about the same age and we had many conversations through the years ranging from picking out first communion...

Jim- I just learned that Cathy passed away and I’m heartbroken. You probably remember that Cathy and I worked together at the genetics lab for many years. We both moved on, but we were lucky to be able to continue to see each other after. She would always pop in my lab to visit when she stopped at UH, and I will miss that smile so much. Always smiling! I’m so sorry, and my deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. Wishing you peace.

I've known and worked with Cathy for all of her 15 years with Leica and I've considered her to be a great friend. Cathy was known for her strong work ethic, dedication to her customers, and always chiming in with important questions and insights during company meetings. I'll miss her feistiness and the loving stories she shared of Jim and her daughters. Such a loss for you all but I know her spirit lives on in you.

My deepest condolences to your family. I have worked with Cathy for 16 year (both at Mediatech and Leica). She was a friend and I will miss her kindness and humor. We had many laughs together over the year.

Heaven has added an Angel; My Aunt Cathy was a kind and gentle soul. She may be gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. Aunt Cathy will live on in the memories of the people who knew and loved her dearly. Uncle Jim, Bridgette & Meghan you have my deepest sympathy! I am tremendously saddened for your loss. I hope all your memories with her give you some comfort, and her legacy live through you all! God Bless! Rest In Peace Aunt Cathy
