My sincere condolences to Catherine´s husband and family. I was incredibly fortunate to know Catherine through my work at Niagara Region Public Health and as a member of our book club. Catherine was a gentle, kind and incredibly giving woman and I always learned so much from her about how to best address and meet the needs of others; especially those who were newcomers or less fortunate. Our book club and our entire community will miss her wisdom, compassion and her generosity.
