I am heartbroken to have lost contact with Catherine through the years. She shared some of my biggest triumphs and setbacks in college and after I went to medical school. She even made the 10 hour trip to northern Maine for my wedding! I kept hoping to reconnect and life just got in the way. She was the wittiest, kindest and likely the smartest person in the room always. My prayers go out to her family and friends.

Catherine was a dear friendof mine and I got to know her while she was the vice principal at Ursuline Academy.
A very simple and humble hearted person.
May God give you, Tom and the rest of the family, the strength and courage as you pass through this difficult period of time.

My deepest condolences to the entire Muldoon family. Dr. Muldoon was a bright light and one of the kindest people to ever come through Ursuline´s doors. She never let us get in trouble for forgetting a green blazer, sneaking us one through the door before we shuffled into prayer service. She was beloved by the Class of 2015. You are all in my prayers.

Words truly fail to express the depth of my condolences to Tom, Tim, Andy, Mary, Martha, John , Jim , the Muldoon and Mooney families and all who had the privilege to know her.

With the greatest of sympathy ,
