I remember working with Cathy at the Health Dept. She was a beautiful lady both inside and out. I remember how difficult it is to lose your mom and my thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this difficult time.

May God grant eternal rest to Cathy, and grant lasting peace and comfort to the surviving family. Cathy was a devoted public health practitioner and a loyal colleague who welcomed me and my family to our Wisconsin assignment. She treated staff and patients with class and dignity, and never failed to lend a hand or offer a worthy advice.
May your gentle soul rest peacefully with the Lord, and your memories continue to inspire the family you left behind.

To the Edward's family, I offer my prayers and condolences. Cathy always had a smile and good things to say about everyone. It was always interesting to talk with her. I pray that she is "at home" and at peace. When you think of the wonderful memories she has left you, I know it will bring a smile to you, just as she always smiled.

My condolences. I learned about her passing today. I worked with Cathy when she was "stationed" at the Health Dept. She was beautiful, kind and gracious. Always willing to help and just brought a beautiful smile to her co-workers every day. My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to the family.

My condolences to Cathy Edwards Family. I just heard of her passing. Cathy and I went to the University of Wisconsin in Madison for our undergraduate studies. We also attended Christ the King Baptist Church in MKE together. She was a wonderful woman with a great spirit! She will be missed. God be with her and the family at this time.

To The Family of Cathy Edwards,
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. I had just learned about her passing today. I remembered Cathy and her daughter when she was a little girl at Christ The King. We used to sing in the Praise Ensemble choir together. Cathy was a very nice lady and always greeted people with a smile. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow. Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

It was with deepest sympathy, I offer to the Edwards Family. I have been knowing Cathy for many years.

We have shared in events, worship services, lunches, etc. I have had the pleasure of visiting her home. A wonderful designer and decorator, professional woman and lady of class was Cathy! A woman who served God in the highest.

Excellence was her motto. I am so saddened to learn of her passing especially on my mother's birthday May 4, the late Mrs. Georgia Mae Carson who entered her heavenly home on May 19, 2000.

May the precious memories sustain you for the days and years ahead. Love Sister KC

May God bring you comfort during this time. You are in our prayers.

Cathy was an inspirational classmate and a fun working colleague working for the State of WI. She will truly be missed, her smile, her warm disposition, and her keen intelligence. Rest now my friend. God's comfort to her children during this time of transition.
