I went to St. Louis U with Cathy and we were roommates with two other classmates one summer when we were studying gross anatomy. We also were both in Kansas City at the same time for one of our clinicals but at different places. We loved exploring the city and both just loved it. I am thrilled to learn she ended up making her home there. I just learned of her passing in our alum magazine. Cathy was the sweetest person. Always with a smile. Always fun to be around. The summer we lived together we were always making rum cakes. I will be making one today in her honor. God bless you Cathy. Thank you for touching my life. My deepest condolences to your family.

Cathy “Jake “ bianco was one of the best people I knew. She made my first home at Baptist hospital the best job I’ve ever had. She somehow got an eclectic group of people and gave me the best memories I’ve ever had and made me want to come to work everyday. May god be with you my friend and an angel upon us always. Love always. Kathy Solomon “SOL”.
