I was so saddened to hear of Cathy’s passing. I was a roommate at McMaster and also attended Brock teacher’s college with her. All memories are of how much we laughed and laughed. She was so much fun and an overall wonderful woman. Wayne, my heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

As an 85 year old who has been gifted 15 more years of life than Catherine I feel sad for the lost potential contributions and love she would have imparted on our community and her family.
I have spoken with her only on several occasions. But she was a teacher for two of my children at Ridgeway-Crystal Beach High School. I also found she was a descendant of a branch of the Green family of The Battle of Stoney Creek fame as are my children on their late mother's side.
December 12, 2024 I went to Fort Erie Urgent Care. I was treated by a young woman who introduced herself as Dr. Redekop. After a thorough examination she decreed I needed to be transferred to St. Catharines. Thanks to Dr. Redekop's (whichever of the three daughters?) caring, skill and decisiveness, six weeks on, I'm surgically repaired.
I'm saying this as a credit to the fine family she raised. I would never have known Dr. Redekop was at the same time facing the mortality of her mother while caring for others.
My sincere condolences to Wayne and family.

My deepest sympathy.  So many memories over a life time.   We shared a special moment in a brief chat.  She mentioned how she kept surprising her Dr.  I told her " it's because you are you"!  Strong and determined.   With that beautiful smile she humbly attributed her Strength to the love of her husband and family and how much she felt loved from them.  I shall always remember our last conversation.  I saw her smile often this lifetime it's a great memory.  Blessings to her husband and family.  I'm sorry for your loss, but glad you had each other.   RIP Cathy, til we meet again

Wayne and family I’m so sorry that Cathy has passed. My memories of Cathy were from high school. She was my gymnastics coach. She was so cheerful, vibrant, full of enthusiasm and encouragement.

My deep condolences to Wayne, the girls and families and to the so many whose lives she touched.
She kept me updated on when the grandchildren were coming and when her daughter brought the newest addition down for the week in Dec. Family was her everything.
When I visited her in September /23, she pulled out her incredible albums from Mac and we reminisced like it was just 'yesterday'.  
I was inspired by her positive attitude and her love of life.  
When she told me a couple weeks ago that she was receiving palliative care my heart became heavy and I realized that the conversations we had in December have now become very special to me.

I wish you all comfort and peace in your incredible individual  memories of this amazing woman.  My prayers and thoughts to you all.

Our deepest condolences to Wayne, Lindsay, Hilary and Kylie and families on the passing of Cathy, a very compassionate person who loved her life.
