I am sad to hear that Catherine has passed away. I knew her from the Gwynedale neighborhood, including the Grounds Committee and cards. She made Gwynedale a much nicer place to live.

So sorry to hear of Catherine's passing, but I'm glad she is no longer suffering. What a sweet, warm, welcoming and fun-loving person she was. When visiting my sister, I always enjoyed seeing Catherine as she was Kelly's neighbor in Gwynedale. Love and prayers to the Pahutski family. -- Kim Moriarty
