Linda Peteranac - August 3, 2023

Cathy is my neice, my brother Bruce's daughter, and I remember Cathy the most as a young child and my too infrequent visits while Bruce was still alive. I will remember Cathy as a cheerful, innocent person and delightful to be with. She always asked me if my husband was my boyfriend and then laugh at her question. We could all take a lesson from her and her happy behaviour. Thanks to her loving and caring Cobourg family for all they did for Cathy after her mother, Mary passed.

I am heartbroken to hear about Cathy’s passing. I spent many years working with her at her home. She was such a bright light and was always happy. On Monday nights we would go to Zumba class where she was the most popular person there. She danced up a storm and won a YMCA hat one night that she always brought with her. We had so much fun those nights. Cathy will be missed.
