    I worked with Cathy for a number of years in her role with HRMA, she was a pleasant and fun person to work with. She always had a smile and a great sense of humor. She will be missed from this earth. My condolences to her family.

    Catherine was a dynamo, to be sure! She was one of the organizational backbones of our annual MO SHRM State Conference at the Lake. She was an upbeat go-getter who will be sorely missed! My fondest memories of her will be her hearty laugh and wide smile. My deepest sympathy goes out to her family. Our HR family has lost a great leader and friend.

    Bob was fortunate to work with Catherine at MC-2 and because of this I met her too. She gave me a great deal of incite and courage as I went through my bout with a serious illness. We will always be grateful and will miss her.

    Cathy’s presence on earth was a blessing from God for all us who knew her. She was a genuine and good person who loved her family and friends a great deal.

    Lee, your mother was a delight to know. It was certainly our pleasure to know her and the wonderful son she had in you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

    I worked with Cathy for several years on the MO State HR Conference. She was a joy to be around. I’m deeply saddened by this news. My thoughts and prayers are with Cathy’s family and friends.
