To the family of Cathy,
My deepest sympathies go out to you all. Cathy was such an extraordinary person, and she will never be forgotten. She and I were colleagues in the healthcare PR world, she in Logan and I in Nelsonville for 18 years. Her mentorship and wealth of knowledge was invaluable to so many lives here in the Hocking Valley. Her talents have led the charge for so many healthcare & community projects that will touch lives for many years to come. Cathy truly was an angel on earth. God bless you all, grace and peace.
Respectfully,
Crystal Howard
former Doctors Hospital of Nelsonville, P.R. Director

My heart is sad as I think about my friend, Kathy.... we have been friends for years.. so many times working with the HVCH Auxiliary and our Twig 4. We were pregnant together in 1976 and our kids graduated together in 1994. The time has passed quickly and I had moved away. Prayers and love to her family. She will be missed by so many. God Bless You All...
