And, that girl could cook! Her dad, Steve, taught her to can, which just added to the wonders that came out of her kitchen. She had so many specialties that you just can’t name them all! Cathy was a representative for Pampered Chef and Tupperware, which allowed her to work in the field that was her passion.

Adam will take Cathy to her final resting place at Banded Peaks and Elephant Rock where she, Chase and Adam fell in love. Maci joined the family in Oregon to make their family complete.
