Dan and I send our deepest condolences to the entire family during this difficult time upon the death of your mother, wife, grandmother and sister. We know that the thoughts of your loss are very overwhelming at this time and that things will quite no longer be the same.
But hopefully you find some comfort in these brief words to express the sadness we feel for all of you. We know that the thoughts are no doubt overwhelming that nothing ever will quite be the same. May you keep safe the memories of your mom that will continue to live on in your heart and minds as well as in the hearts and minds of all who knew and loved her.

Dear Les, Doris, Veronica & Family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. I have very fond memories of Cathy, beginning with when you were our neighbours, so long ago, in Russeldale. Her friendship continued with my mom over the years, and she always looked forward to her “monthly letters from Cathy”. I am so glad she had the opportunity to visit with her, this past November.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, at this very difficult time.
Love, Leah and Mary

My condolences to the Glanville and Zimmer families. Cathy touched the lives of many and in particular she hit a home run with her institution of “if you grew up in Zurich” . Cathy created a forum for many to share memories and reacquaint themselves with long lost friends. She truly inspired a wide range of conversations and opinions and was complimentary to everyone. I had not seen Cathy for many years but I and many felt she was a big part of our enjoyment of the past. Cathy will be missed.
