Sister Catherine became a member of our family during the years that my sister, Kristi, was hospitalized at St. Mary's in Rogers. Even though we are of the Baptist faith, Sister Catherine ministered to us through her prayers, presence and service... even speaking from the Baptist pulpit at Kristi's funeral. Today, Heaven is graced with another woman who represents what walking as Christ walked truly means. I look forward to the day that we will again be able to worship and praise King Jesus together!

Sister Catherine always had a smile,kind words and showed compasion to all. She came to me when my mother passed which helped me tremendously. She was a great and wonderful presence at St. Mary's Hospital.Sister Catherine will be missed by all hearts she touched.

Sister Catherine was a gentle but very strong lady. I worked with her at St. Mary's hospital in Rogers, and will always remember how ready she was to visit anyone in the hospital who needed comfort, no matter what the hour. I will always remember her cheerful, twinkling eyes and warm personality. She was truly a comfort to all who knew her.

What an incredible woman! I worked at the Rogers Memorial Hospital as a ward secretary, nursing aid, dietary aid and many years later as an RN. I now teach nursing at Duke University. I can without a doubt say I got my start at feet at of this young Sister. She was gentle and firm...a compassionate nurse. She ministered to not only the body but the soul. She was a good friend to my family during my father's death in 2000. She came to the visitation and I ask her who drove her? She replied quite quickly "well I did." she was a feisty spirit! May she rest in peace for she did so much work and comforted so many people in this life. I am sure there was a special place reserved just for her. My life was blesses to know her. Helen Gordon

A true angel of God she was there for our family and for all the families at St. Marys Hospital. Bless her heart with all the years we worked with her she could not tell us apart and gave us the nick name twinnie thus when calling twinnie either of us knew she was addressing one of us, we will miss her dearly now she will be with the Lord and doing more amazing duties for all the world may God Bless her Keeping her and her family in our prayers Twinnies R&R

I worked at St. Mary's during Sr. Catherine's time there. Sr. Catherine radiated kindness and grace. She made St.Mary's "St. Mary's".

We love Sister Catherine, she was the "heart" of St. Mary's Hospital and made us smile everyday at work. We have and will continue to miss her presence.

Sister Catherine was a great inspiration in my life as well as in many others in Rogers AR. I know God was most pleased with the job she did while on this earth.

Family and Friends: I am so very sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you all. She was the most kind and compassionate nun I have ever met in my 53 years as a catholic! She was so very kind when my father was ill and passed away at Mercy in Rogers. I will never forget her smile and her very kind touch. She will be in heaven now with the angels' and also my daughter Jessica. God Bless!

Sister Catherine was a sweetheart! In 1997, she was with Mom and I at St. Mary's Hospital, when Mom passed away. After Mom passed,she took her comb and combed what hair Mom had left, and said let's make her look pretty. That was just the kindest gesture! She also attended Mom's funeral service, which wasn't a religious affair. I loved that they had a cardboard cut-out of this diminuative Nun with a large heart stationed at the Mercy Services door, just like she was still greeting patients. She has truly been an angel on earth, and now is with the other angels in Heaven. Sister Catherine, we loved you!

Sister Catherine came into our lives when my daughter was 2 years old and having major surgery [she is 35 now] Sister helped me through that time and became a friend. I thank God for the time we had with her.

Sister Catherine was a great friend to me for the many years she lived in Rogers. She always had a smile and a good word for everyone. She will be missed, but I know she will still be doing the Lord's work in heaven. God Bless you Sister.

Sister was a wonderful dedicated person, always thinking of others. I loved her dearly! She will be missed.

Sr. Catherine was an inspiration to me. She looked on the heart of patients. You could see in her eyes the love and compassion for the sick. I saw her take a man,who most would recoil from,hug him,give him a blessing and told him that Jesus loved him. Sister had a great sense of humour and was an example of our Lord Jesus' ministry on the earth. My deepest sympathy to you for loss and joy to Sister Catherine for her gain.

Being in the presence of Sr. Catherine Dominic was the closest I have ever been to an Angel. When I think of her I see a floating white habit reverently making her rounds in the halls of St Mary's at all hours of the day and night. What an inspirational life we have all witnessed.

We will miss the sweet presence of sister in Rogers, AR but pray and know Jesus says well done my faithful servant. THANK YOU SISTER
