MEMORIAL CONTRIBUTIONS

To the family of Catherine, I am very sorry for your loss. In the brief time I knew Catherine, as a co-worker within the same department, she was honestly a remarkable and kind woman. She brought cheer and humor to her co-workers with her charming Irish wittiness. She created a wonderful and positive workplace with her extensive, lovely holiday decorations she placed throughout our work room. I will cherish our daily conversations on gardening, as Catherine loved to share her immense knowledge and passion for plants and flowers. She was an endearing colleague and will truly be missed.
In keeping with Catherine’s love of celebrating the Irish-
“May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.”
With my deepest condolences,
Ann M

I hate that your family is going through this loss. A sister is a gift and Catherine seemed so gentle and kind. God bless you all

My deepest sympathy on the passing of your dear Catherine. Here at the warrants unit at the 911 Center, we were and are all in shock. Catherine and I worked together for 15 years, we shared many stories about our families, vacations, gardening, movies, TV and many other things. I will truly miss her. My prayers are with the family and also for Catherine. I know she is in heaven with her beloved, Sean, and her heavenly family and friends. Until we meet again.
