A special thank you to Catherine or "Nan’s" amazing care givers, Dr. Robert Power and Nicole Richardson who helped fulfill her wish to remain in the comfort of her own home.
Catherine has left a legacy of a life that revolved around her family, she spent many hours in the kitchen, cooking, baking, oh how she loved her sweets, and making her delicious homemade bread. She made many quilts and spent hours on her sewing machine. And when she wasn’t busy with all of that, you would find her with a pair of knitting needles and a ball of yarn while watching her soaps or her daily mass. She made the best mittens, socks, and pot cloths.
