I will miss Cat so much. Every day of my 5.5 years employed at Nolan, Cat cheered me with her morning greetings... our shared love of coffee... her interest in my pet turtle... her love of my nephew... and her laughter, jokes and kindness. My very deepest condolences to the entire Delaney family, especially David and her baby doggie Charlie. Cat will be missed every day and she truly will live on in the lives of all of us who knew her. God Bless you David. May you be comforted by the prayers we all send your way.
