Catherine Wellman Obituary
Cathy was born on September 21, 1957 in Toledo, OH to David and Novella Ball.
She spent most of her adult life in Lodi, CA where she worked as a preschool teacher and continued to teach when she moved to Arizona in 2005. Although she was an amazingly gifted teacher, she always felt that her greatest accomplishment was being a mother.
She is survived by her siblings: Karen Michener, David Ball Jr., Theresa Defalco, Cristine Kruse, Michael Ball, Robert Segura and Matthew Segura; her children, Christie Michaeloff and Bradley Davies; her husband, Mark Wellman, and her stepchildren, Mark Wellman Jr. and Jenna Wellman.
She is preceded in death by her sister, Patricia Jostes.
Her remains will be laid to rest in Lodi, the place she always called home.
