Her parents, Agnes M. (Luksevish) and Clifford A. Bunker, Sr., welcomed their daughter, one of eight children, into the world on May 4, 1953 in Gilsum, NH. Cathy grew up in Gilsum and was a graduate of Monadnock Regional High School in Swanzey, NH.
Cathy loved her work with Douglas Toy Company, designing and sewing cuddle toys for over forty years.
She also enjoyed going fishing; knitting and sewing; cooking; and tending to her flower gardens and her home, a responsibility she took great pride in. From an early age, Cathy was self-sufficient and able to take care of any problems that presented themselves to her. She found a special place in her heart for her dachshund dogs.
She will be greatly missed by many, especially her son, Frank P. Lackey, Jr. and his wife, Lisa, of Sullivan, NH; her daughter, Melissa Lackey of Keene, NH; her granddaughter, Savanna and her husband, Eric Snelling, III, of Washington, NH; her brother, Daniel "Danny" Bunker and his wife, Sue, of Surry, NH; a sister, Agnes Simoneau and her husband, Al, of Francestown, NH; and many nieces, nephews and extended family members. Her husband of 41 years, Frank Philip Lackey, Sr.; and her brothers, Clifford "Sonny" Bunker, Gene Bunker, Terry Bunker, and Dustin Bunker, predeceased her.
Services for Cathy will be held privately by the family.
For those who wish, donations may be made in her memory to Patient Care Needs of Hospice, Home Healthcare Hospice and Community Services, PO Box 564, Keene, NH 03431-0564.
