Cathy was one of the most caring people that I have ever known. She always had a smile and her laughter was contagious. We were very close when she was growing up and living on Longview Avenue and I lived on Woodland Heights in Ware. We were family first and then friends forever. Her dad was my first cousin. I became Dr. Ruth to her regarding adult situations in her life. She was always a sweetheart to everyone. She loved being a grandmother to her two granddaughters. I was so thrilled when in recent years, she found true love with Dan Tuttle and they married. His passing earlier this year was very difficult for her. This illness that overcame her was so sad. I know she is with Dan again. She will always be a wonderful memory in my mind and heart. Love you

I worked with Cathy at the local bank for a few years. Cathy always had a humongous smile on her face and a kind word, also giving us so many laughs. She was the one to be with and have a great time. Cathy, I will miss you and that great smile. Gone way too soon. Love, Lora Baldracchi
