I am so very sorry to hear about Cathy and fondly remember the years we worked together at Purdue. Unfortunately I could not attend as I received the notice too late. Please know that she is in the hearts and prayers of all who knew her.

We missed out on a life time of memories, only just learning about you, Betty & Patti a couple of years ago. We still had so much to share, so much to learn of one another. You will be sadly missed by all of us.
Your Niece Dee-Dee, Tommy and Family. Rest in Peace!

Lee and I wish all the family our deepest regrets in the loss of your Dear Wife/Mother/Grandmother/Mother in law. Sudden death like the one to Catherine are a real shocker to all. She is now with the LORD and is in a much better place. Sorrow and pain will be no more! Lee and Cliff
