Cathy was one of my very favorite people for over 40 years. We were in each other’s weddings and she was the beloved godmother of my youngest daughter. I can’t imagine life without her. I am glad that Cathy and her family had such strong faith in the end. So much love to everyone that loved her.

I am so very sorry to hear of Cathy’s passing. I will never forget all of the fun times we had together as kids. Many thoughts and prayers to her family.
John Connor and Justin. Just as I knew Cathy only a little in comparison to the full life you had with her, my grief too, cannot compare to yours. May the consolation of your hearts by God, which she prayed for every day for you, also be abundant. May you feel her prayers answered in your life always.
Justin and Connor, Glenn and I want to extend our condolences. Your mother was a beautiful lady. Our door is always open to you.
Dear Lois and family. I’m so sorry for your loss. Cathy has been in my prayers and I know she’s at peace now. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you and your family in your time of sorrow
We are so very sorry for the loss of your beautiful wife, mother, daughter, sister Cathy. We have been struck by her faith through this difficult journey and find comfort that she rests in the arms of her Savior now. We have known her since we were neighbors from 1982-1988 and of course attended John and Cathy’s wedding 25 years ago. It is hard to accept that one still so young has been taken, but she left the world a better place for having been here. Love is everything. May she rest in peace.
I’ll miss you so much
Cathy was one of those students who has continued to live on in my head and in my heart. Her energy and her enthusiasm kept me charged when she was in high school, and whenever I heard about her or saw her, all of that was rekindled. Cathy, here’s to that trip we often talked about taking so many years ago… Prayers for your family.
I’m so very sorry to hear of Cathy’s passing. I have fond memories of growing up across the street from Cathy and many “neighbor friends” time together. I’ve been following her journey these past years and months and keeping her in my prayers. I will continue to keep Cathy’s family in my prayers.
So very sorry for your loss. Our prayers are with your family during this difficult time.
Adriana, Kate and Kevin
John, so sorry for your loss.
