Cathy has been a delightful person to know, and a true friend and teacher to my daughter Sue. She was a person full of humor, adventure, and compassion, a delight to visit with and to have her visit us. Her visit with us last year was pure pleasure because of her obvious joy and delight and interest with everything God has created. Thanks with deep appreciation to you, John and Anita, and to all of her family for allowing her to grow up in an environment where she learned to love people with a servant’s heart, reaching out and caring for others until God took her home.

I introduced Cathy to Billy. Cathy wasn't looking for a dog when she met Billy, but Billy chose Cathy as his human. He wrapped her around his paw by pulling her hair with his teeth. Cathy found that adorable and Billy was one very lucky dog when Cathy decided Billy was to be part of her family. Billy has had more love, activities, training, and wardrobe than many children. The attached photo is of Cathy and Billy as devil dog along with his buddies; Mirra as bird dog and Hayu as watch dog Halloween of 2007.

Happy memories from camping

Cathy, you are one in a million and will be dearly missed. I was truly blessed and honored to have had a friend like you. True friendship was your mantra. You made life fun and rewarding. The legacy you leave will be treasured and remembered forever. Peaceful rest to you.

I first met Cathy when she came downstairs to let me know that one of her snakes was missing and could travel down to our shower or bathtub and that he was harmless and just come get her and she would take care of it. Although that was an odd beginning to a friendship, one developed none-the-less. Cathy had a beautiful servants heart and was always willing to share her joy and let others share with her. She is deeply missed.
