Catherine loved her family and nothing was more important. They were her world. She couldn’t wait to be a grandma and thrived at it. Although she worked outside of the home, she was always a stay-at-home mother at heart. She loved nothing more than loving and taking care of her family; preparing them meals and baking for them and she never missed any of their activities. She was an avid gardener and loved flowers.
Her home and flowerbeds looked like a botanical garden. In later years, she and Darold loved camping in their fifth-wheel. She loved putting together jigsaw puzzles and it was nothing for her to put a 2,000 piece puzzle together in a day or two, she has quite a collection. She LOVED animals! As a youth she had more than 10 horses and loved to ride either by saddle or even by sleigh. She had goats, chickens, pigs, cattle, dogs, and cats. For the past eight years, her beloved pet was Callie Cat, she loved her dearly!
She attended Timberlake church in Moberly and was involved the Madison Homemaker’s Club, a bible study group called (WMR) Wednesday Morning Regulars and the XYZ’ers Committee at Timberlake church.
