Cathy......you will be truly missed!! When I was a receptionist, I knew it was you because there was nobody that could hold a conversation like yours and made it seem as though they were standing right beside you as you explained the nature of your call. I am going to truly miss you Cathy........
Cathy will be missed by so many, but especially her patients. She truly was an irreplaceable nurse and woman. I have so many wonderful memories of working with Cathy at Texas Home Health. She always had a smile for everyone, and loved bigger than anyone I know. I was blessed to get to ride along with Cathy to see her patients one week. They all love her because she loves each one and gave them her undivided attention and care, always with a hug and an"I love you." I will always remember her driving with her knee, a cell phone in one hand and a GPS in the other! I begged her to let me hold something so she could have a hand to drive with, but she said "Girl, I got this! I do this every day!" And laughed, like only Cathy could. This world was a brighter, sweeter place for having Cathy in it. She will be missed by so many. My prayers are with her family and her coworkers, who were also her family. Cathy, my friend, I will see you on the other side. I know Heaven is full of your laughter right now. Bobbie A. Haygood
Ricky, I am very sorry to hear about your loss. We are praying that through the grief, you and your family will sense God's present love, and find His comfort in the sweet memories of all the yesterdays with Cathy.
To Ms. Cathy's Family......
We first met Ms. Cathy two years ago when mom had an adverse reaction to generic medication and developed open sores on her feet and legs....it did not take long for us to realize that Ms. Cathy was a truly remarkable nurse and a truly remarkable person....she visited mom almost daily and celebrated the ups and downs with us....she always knew what to say and what to do....if mom had had her way, Ms. Cathy would have been her only nurse....when other nurses came out I would tell them how Ms. Cathy did things and they would graciously try to do what she did....we feel such a loss, but we know that we are blessed to have met an angel on earth....Mr. Ricky, Rachel, Jace....we feel as if we know you since Ms. Cathy talked about you all the time and was so proud of all of you....Rest in peace our dear, sweet Ms. Cathy

Cathy really was the most dependable knowledgeable nurse I have ever met. I really will miss her enthusiasm for the day . Every time I talked to her she always had a smile. Any time I saw one of her patients if was nothing but praise for cathy. I will truly miss her. Any time I called with a question no matter how busy she was she always answered.
Cathy was a nurse unlike any other. She had a heart of gold. She trained numerous nurses and was always willing to answer a question or meet you at a patients house to look at a wound for you. She was always smiling and I never heard her say an ill word about anyone. She always saw the good in people. She will be greatly missed not only by her family, but by her co-workers, friends, patients and this community. God speed Cathy. You were an angel on earth.
Cathy was a caring, committed, devoted, loving, caring nurse and a friend whom will be dearly missed. I was so shocked of this news and just wish I had that one last opportunity to tell her just how special she was! Cathy, u will be Greatly missed! My condolences go out to the family ! Rest in peace my friend. <3
Cathy's smile could light up any room. Her compassion & caring nature was always first with her patients to ensure she help improve their quality of life. I had the honor and privilege to be Cathy's Vice President . She left a legacy of love and untiring for our patients. Cathy will truly be missed! My hearts and prayers are with her immediate family and her Texas Home Health family.
Cathy was my mother's home health nurse. She was a skilled, kind, and loving nurse. My mother looked forward to Cathy's visits because she always treated her with compassion, dignity, and respect--with a dash of humor. She has blessed our family and will be greatly missed.
