To Catherine Greco's family: I just learned of your loss while looking for another obit. Your mom endured far more with her health, than many others, who have left us. I light this candle for both "Catherines" and their families. I dearly loved the First Catherine, as we had many chats at her kitchen table as I was growing up. I so remember her being very tired, and in her words, "I don't have the strength..." I really loved her.
