Jeff, Hailey, Carley and Family, Please accept our sincere, heartfelt condolences.  I heard today (11/19) that Cathy passed.  Our daughters, Sarah and Julia would come over and play with the girls while they were at Desert Cove.  I would enjoy conversing with Cathy and admiring the garden.  I feel very fortunate to have met her, what a special person she was.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. I am so sorry.

I love and miss all of my family. I wish I could have been there at her memorial. I love and miss you! <3

Every time I would massage Cathy's feet she would always have that smile no matter how bad it was. Jeff I saw in your eyes the love you had for Cathy and may you be embraced in God's arms with peeace and strength.

Dear Jeff,
I met and spoke to Cathy only a few times during our company gatherings. I remember the gentle smile and the determined eyes. I always sensed a peace within her. My hope and prayer to my God is for His strength to fill you in your time of weakness and drench you in His peace.

I am so sorry for the loss of Cathy.  I hope your loving memories of her wrap tightly around you and your family in the incredibly rough days ahead.    Much love and peace, Marci Monaghan

I was saddened to hear about Cathy. She was like a ray of sunshine when she entered our dental office for her visits and we enjoyed her bringing in the girls and seeing them grow up. She has a wonderful family and will truly be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.
My heartfelt regards

Jeff,
Thank you for sharing your photos of Cathy throughout the years. She was one amazing woman.  

We were best friends in high school, we knew everything about each other. No one could make me laugh as much as Cathy could!  Later years, it was an honor to be a bridesmaid in your wedding, and I was thrilled that she would be a bridesmaid in mine.   

I loved seeing all the photos of your family, you can see in her eyes how much in love with you she was, and how much she adored her girls. 

I am so thankful, that Cathy was a part of my life... she will always hold a place in my heart!

God bless you and the girls, Bill & Sue, David and Billy.  My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you!

Jeff, Carlye and Hailey,
Cathy was well loved and will be dearly missed. It was an honor to be her friend. You are all in our thoughts.

Jeff and girls, I only met you briefly a few years ago, however I grew up with Cathy and her brothers during our primary school years.
