Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 22, 2025.
Catherine Norma Ruth "Cathi" Woodall (Ricks), 71, passed away on March 18, 2025, at Rainey Hospice House in Anderson, South Carolina.

Born on January 17, 1954, in Anderson, South Carolina, Cathi spent her life surrounded by family and friends. She worked as a bartender for many years and also spent time employed in textile mills. Known for her warm and welcoming nature, she never met a stranger.

She is survived by her two sons, Larry "Wayne" Ricks (Jennifer) and Andy Harbin (Christy); her 12 grandchildren-Kaylee (Dillon), Britney (Noel), Ansleigh, Ryan (Faith), Nikki, Luke (Kaylea), Paul (Sadie), Christopher, Mallory, Austin (Angel), Brooklyn, and Caitlyn -as well as her 12 great-grandchildren. Also among those who will cherish her memory are her siblings, Sara Alice Fleming, Opal McDowell, and David Ricks.

Cathi was preceded in death by her parents, John and Lorene Evans Ricks; her brothers Johnny Ricks, Dorsey Ricks, Mark Ricks, and Billy Ricks; and her sister Berta Lee Reed.

A memorial gathering will be held at a later date. The families will be at their homes.

Cathi's memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
