Catherine Leah Plasencia of Novi, MI passed away on August 26th at the age of 36. She will be deeply missed by her devoted father and mother, Dave and Judy Plasencia, older sister Emily and many aunts, uncles and cousins, as well as her loyal and protective service dog, Mesa.
Catherine and her parents appreciated her friendship with Quinn, and special friendship with Josh. They both brought much joy to Catherine's life.
Catherine enjoyed attending University of Michigan football games with her dad and harassing the visiting fans - all in fun, of course. She enjoyed watching the Olympics with her mom and cheering our athletes on with a "U-S-A!" chant.
Catherine was sweet, sassy and funny. She developed a love of dance as a young girl and enjoyed being a varsity cheerleader at Novi High School (Class of 2006).
Relatives and friends are invited to O'Brien-Sullivan Funeral Home, 41555 Grand River Ave., Novi, MI 48375 on Thursday, September 12th at 11:00am. A memorial service will be held at 12:00pm.
