Please accept our condolances - you are in our thoughts and prayers.
You have our deepest sympathy at Aunt Catherine's passing. She brought so much happiness and love. We enjoyed our Thanksgivings at her house. Tracey enjoyed the Tea she went to with her mother-in-law and Aunt Catherine. It was always fun to visit with her.
Ken our sincerest condolences on the loss of your mom. We know she meant a lot to you. A commemorative lamp will be delivered to your house next week so you can always turn the light on and remember her.
All of your friends at the Boys and Girls Clubs of MetroWest
My condolences to Uncle Ted and Kenny for this loss. I will always remember her dried apples they were good and I remember that smell when you walked into the door off the kitchen at her house, "grammy through the path", Joanne, Debbie and Ted and Aunt Pat the other grammy through the path.
Please accept my condolences for the loss of Aunt Catherine. I have many memories of holidays spent with Uncle Otto and Aunt Catherine, Teddy & Kenny, Joanne & Debbie and the rest of the clan-most notably the Christmas Eves we spent in Willington. This is going back a long ways! It is sad how fast time goes by. I know she lived a wonderful life and was blessed with great people all around her.
Take care and may she rest in peace.

Accept my condolences on Catherine's passing. As you know, my mother Alyce Douda and Catherine were long,long time friends and traveling companions. Both lived long lives and may they both now rest in peace.
Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of Catherine. I started my job at IMS/UConn in 1966 and finally retired in 2002. I was located on the 3rd floor of the old Physics Building (my boss was a Physics Professor); Catherine was located in the main Physics Office on the 1st floor - trust me when I tell you there were many trips made up & down those stairs as Catherine taught me everything I needed to know about State procedures and regulations. I don't know what I would have done without her. She made me feel like I was her one of her children as she took me under her wing and guided me (I was 18 at the time). Again, my deepest sympathy to all of you.
She was a good neighbor to my parents Alex and Vilma Duhansky,
Dear family,
I was saddened to pick up the paper this morning and read of Cathy's passing, and even sadder that I had not gotten in touch with Cathy in recent years.
She occupies a very special place in my heart. Years past when I attended Willington church, my husband Ed and I enjoyed many pleasant visits at her home. Ed and Cathy enjoyed sharing their Czech backgrounds.
With deep sympathy and much love to you all,
Harriet Muska
