Wow, and just like that a familiar name is gone from our circle. May she rest in peace, may her family find solace, and let' s all appreciate each other just a little more.

Thanks Joqua. I was never sure.

Shocking news and I'm sad to hear this. I was just thinking of her yesterday. She was also a facebook friend and we talked back and forth about places each of us wanted to move in the future. She had talked about Ruidoso.

Thanks for letting us know Joqua. RIP Cathy.

I am terribly sad to hear this news. I knew she was planning on moving from Alpine and I just thought she was busy getting everything finished up on her house so it would be ready to sell. I feel so bad that I didn't reach out to her in these last few months, but this news comes as a big shock to me. Cathy was active and we use to talk about our swims, etc. so this is just totally unexpected.

I hate that this happened to her. She was a great gal and I enjoyed our conversations. She was close to her younger sister who recently moved from Austin to Corpus and she did go visit her back in the spring so I'm glad they had that time together.

You will be missed, Cathy.

She also lived in Farmington, NM for a while and told me that was an ideal place for weather, but she always wanted to move back to Texas from Alamogordo and she did ... Alpine. Rest in peace, Cathy!

Well put, TexasGabe, we never know when we're going to leave this earth, so let's treat each other with kindness and respect while we're all here.
