Cathy was such a beautiful person. I was blessed to work with her at the hospital. She was a beautiful light to this world. She was full of life love and kindness I'm gonna miss her greatly. May God comfort her husband son and family. Tara williams

One of a kind to be sure. Cathy was one of the most kind, caring, generous, fun person I've ever met. It was such a treat to visit Cathy and cousin Keith over the past years in Slidell. As a full-blooded Italian, Catherine Cathy Frances Lamonte Toczek could be a sassy spitfire, but always warm and welcoming. Cathy was such a hoot with her shopping and t-shirts and all manner of goodness. Passing too soon at age 62, Cathy will be dearly missed but remembered warmly. Rest in peace, dear Cathy.
