Catherine died peacefully with family surrounding her at Anschutz Medical Center after a courageous fight against an unfair adversary, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). She fought the disease with her signature grit, strength of character, positive attitude and faith.
She is survived by her husband of 44 years, Michael, her daughter Amee, son Michael, stepdaughter Allison, brother Michael, sister Maureen, three granddaughters – Lily, Natalie, and Lorna, many nieces/nephews/great nieces/great nephews across the country, and a large group of close friends all of whom loved her deeply.
In return, Catherine genuinely loved her family and friends. If you were lucky to be in that cadre, you know the depth of that love.
She is remembered as a bright light that lit every environment, a welcoming friend to everyone, an Energizer Bunny with so much energy, and someone who could make you feel like a close friend after just a short conversation. She was a beautiful soul and truly one of a kind!
She held a Bachelors in Business Management and Masters in Organizational Development. She retired from Intel Corporation after a career in Marketing and Marketing Field Training. She was actively involved in her church and volunteer programs across the Estes valley and enjoyed her “retail therapy” engaging with customers at Cabin Fever.
A Memorial Service will be held Saturday April 5th at 2:00 PM at Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies, 1700 Brodie, Estes Park, CO 80517 with a reception following. The service will be live streamed on pccrusa.org and available afterwards on the website.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Catherine’s name are welcome at the two organizations who provided her so much support during her fight with ALS: Presbyterian Community Church of the Rockies (pccrusa.org) or ALS United Rocky Mountain (https://alsrockymountain.org).
