Thank you so much for all your posts and updates ~ such sad news for everyone who was fortunate enough to know her, even if it was only through blogging. It was lovely to see the photographs of you both and they are all lovely images to remember her by.

42, same age as me. No age at all. Thank you for keeping us updated; I know you must be grieving terribly and we are very greatful that you understand how much, despite never meeting Cathey in person, she meant to us all xxxx

A life well lived is not by all the material things you collect, it's by the lives you touch and the love you leave behind.

Cathey will be truly missed. :)

I've been trying to find out about Pumpkin for awhile. I am so saddened to hear of her loss. Never communicated with her, but prayed for her A LOT. This is one of the saddest stories I've ever heard. I'm sure her family will let her little boy know what a fabulous woman she was!
