She is survived by her devoted husband Bob and her children Bob Browne of Rohnert Park, CA; Theresa Geno of Boise, ID; Cathy Burgoyne of Spring Valley, CA; Karen Fenstermaker of Winlock, WA; Tricia Bosvay of El Cajon, CA; Stephen Browne of Lemon Grove, CA and Veronica Keenan of El Cajon, CA.

Blessed are those who have died in the Lord; let them rest from their labors for their good deeds go with them.

Eternal rest grant unto Catherine, O Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen.

May her soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in Peace. Amen.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

II Timothy 4:7-8
