Chris and Paige I am so sorry to hear about Cathy. I just found out so long afterwards. Chris you might remember me I worked with Cathy at Builders Square. I had fun going to the movies with her and she helped me do a Green Bay Packers theme stocking for my brother 1 year. She was a good friend during that time and shortly after. 💔
