Nadine Cattan, 97, of Victoria, passed away on Thursday, February 2, 2023. She was born March 2, 1925 in Sour Lake, Texas to Mack and Lessie Johnston Chamblee. She met her husband of 70 years, Sammy, when she was a high school cheerleader in Bloomington. She was active in her children's school activities as they were growing up, she was a great cook, and she enjoyed traveling and playing the slots. Her pride and joy were her kids, grandkids and great grandkids - who called her Meme. She loved the little ones and they loved her back. Nadine was a longtime member of Holy Family Catholic Church where she was active in the altar society, was a Eucharistic Minister, and taught CCD. She had such a positive and upbeat demeanor, always adding "have fun" to her goodbyes.
She is survived by her son, James Cattan (Sherry); daughters, Peggy Cattan Rouquette (Jody), Patti Cattan Albrecht (Darrell), and Becky Cattan Pruett (Terrell); 12 grandchildren; and numerous great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Sam Cattan, whom she married on October 10, 1942; parents; sister, Dee O'Donnell; and great-granddaughter, Kate Cattan.
Visitation will be held Monday, February 6, 2023 from 10-11 a.m. at Colonial Funeral Home followed by funeral services at 11 a.m. Burial will follow in Memorial Park Cemetery.
