So sorry to hear of Cathy's passing. We were apprentices together and bowled together. She was a good gal. Always friendly and kind. My prayers to her family.

Though it's been many years since we've spoken, Cathy has never left my mind or my heart. She was one of the kindest souls I've ever known. She would nearly squeeze the breath out of me with every hug. I remember her stack of Jim Croce and U2 CDs in the kitchen, bacon, eggs and biscuits for breakfast, her penchant for computer games (You Don't Know Jack, Solitaire) and handheld Yahtzee. Above all, I remember her passion for her family and friends. She was always so giving of her heart. I have no doubt that continued until her last breath. Rest well, Cathy.

Tony, Tristyn, Michelle, Gabriel, Griffin, and Geoffrey, I am truly sorry for your loss.

Cathy, I will always remember all the good times we've had over the years. I will miss you.
