Cathy Lynn,taken too soon. One of the things that impressed me about Cathy was her devotion to her mother when she struggled more and more with her arthritis. I remember talking to Cathy about her doing more for the household. She took it in stride and did not seem to mind a bit. In the same way, Cathy also looked out for Jeremy. She made him feel special with all the attention and time she spent with him. Making a difference in a child's life is gift for all of us. I appreciated Cathy for her sense of humor. I used to enjoy Cathy and Jimmy trading remarks. Each of them trying to top the other. My favorite line from Cathy was delivered as she was getting a piece of cake, "Don't Aunt Gert me." My dearest cousin, you leave an empty place in our family. Thank you for all you brought to our clan.

Cathy was a very dear cousin.We shared many Holidays growing up together. We had many fun times Together. As we grew to be adults we joined a bowling league together, it was there she would always be bragging about her family. She loved them dearly and enjoyed everyone of the nieces and nephews. She always had a story to share about them. She was very greatful for her sisters also. She knew she could count on them for anything.Then we got to work on the benefit together. I can still see her sitting and selling those cookbooks with her "lunch buddy" Jeremy. Boy did they do a great job!! I also visited her after her stroke. Even after all she had been through she managed to share many smiles.One day after leaving from our visit I felt like I won the lotto as she shared so many smiles.God chose to bring her home earlier than we would of liked. We can find comfort she is safe, not in pain and happier than she has ever been. May God comfort and take away our sadness, so we can rejoice with Cathy as her reward in Heaven will be Great.

Love to all my Cousins and family

Cathy was a wonderful, loving and giving person. She did not deserve the pain and suffering she had to go through the past two months. I know she is in peace now and looking down at us with our parents and two brothers. She was a wonderful Aunt to by sons and grandson and they, like myself, will miss her greatly. She was not only my sister, but also a friend. I love her very much and will miss her deeply. Her pain is gone and she no longer has to suffer. Our pain has greatly increased and will linger on living life without her. I love you so very much Cathy and will miss you not being here. You will always be in my heart.

Love to you always Cathy.

I DIDN'T KNOW CATHY VERY WELL. I WORKED WITH HER AT KMART FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT HER STROKE. I AM SO GLAD I HAD THE TIME TO SEND HER A GET WELL CARD. I HOPE IT LET HER KNOW THAT I WAS THINKING OF HER AND HOW SORRY I WAS TO HEAR THAT SHE WAS SICK. THERE WERE A LOT OF TEARS AT WORK TODAY, WHEN WE ALL FOUND OUT THAT SHE WAS GONE. SHE IS SAFE NOW AND IN GOD'S HANDS. I'LL SAY A PRAYER FOR HER AND HER FAMILY. MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS. SHE WILL BE MISSED.

Since Cathy had her stroke in Oct. Iv'e learned that how just one instant,can change so many lives.

It took Cathy's illness to make me feel the strength of a sisterly bond that weakened through the years, but was never lost.When I would say "Cathy I Love You" and she would mouth "I LOVE YOU TOO"

I will always cherish that in my heart and use that as my strength

to yet, get over losing another sibling to young in life.Cathy I Love you and I will miss you so much. (Cathy's sister Sherry)
