My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and love ones. He was a member of the NNSY "Tiger Team" family; he contributed much to the successes of the tiger team and always greeted you with a smile. I know he will be missed and I know our father has a special place for him, a place where he can make everyone smile.
May our Father bless his family during this tough time. Be strong knowing Cat is at home with our heavenly Father !

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and love ones. Funny thing because our Shipyard work mates could not correctly pronounce both our last names, Catahan and Lagdameo; we get called Cat Man and Lag Man.
You will be missed Flo

I worked with Florante "Cat" in NNSY's Tiger Team. Cat was always willing to help me when I needed it. He also kept us laughing a lot! I pray that God will comfort you as family in this time of loss, as only He can!

I met Florante in 1984 at Norfolk Naval Shipyard. We worked together in Shop 38 and our whole group of apprentices had lots of laughs through the years of school and working. I saw him many times while he was on the Tiger Team in Building 184 before he retired. I am very sorry for your loss. He was a great guy and I know he will be truly missed. May God's pease and comfort be with your family during this difficult time.
