She will be sorely missed by anyone who knew her. Her children and grandchildren loved her. She’s ok though because she is with her hubby. Rest in peace Cathy!! <3

Bobby and Donna, I am so sorry to read of your mother’s passing. Your mother was a great person, always with a quick quip, and her personality always made me laugh. I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers.
