Catherine enjoyed her leisure time by taking part in various hobbies. She was an accomplished pianist. She was content to enjoy her favorite pastimes alone but was also willing to share her interests with others. In high school Catherine was an award winning archer, she also enjoyed horse back riding and fencing.
After retiring from her position as a supervisor for the heath department, she found new pleasure in the new friendships she made at the assisted living. Even in retirement, Catherine continued to stay in touch with her old friends while making plenty of new acquaintances.
Catherine leaves behind her a legacy of life-long friendships and many cherished memories.
Catherine is survived by her daughters, daughter Kathie McDonald and Linda Franklin; grandsons Adam Franklin and Jason Franklin, and great granddaughters Paige Franklin and Noelle Franklin.
