Mike, my sincere sympathy on the loss of Cathy. She was a talented and dedicated administrator in New Castle. I was proud to have worked under Cathy. She made a positive mark on the town and was so interested in the welfare of the residents and employees. Always a smile. Always kind. God Bless you both. Marian Delaney
