Cathy loved to watch her granddaughters grow and enjoy life. She demanded everyone listen intently when her granddaughter, Kaitlyn ,would sing for the family and she loved to burn popcorn and make fudge with her granddaughter, Chloe.
Cathy looked forward to the camping season every summer where the whole family would come together for no reason at all other than to enjoy each other, share silly stories and ride motorcycles. Cathy was the glue that made our family bond and she is missed dearly by us all.
