HICKEY: Catharine “Cathy” May (Lisso) of Lucan
Posted By Haskett Funeral Homes On March 25, 2024 @ 3:51 PM In Lucan,Obituary | 20 Comments
It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of Catharine May (Lisso) Hickey on Sunday, March 24, 2024 of Lucan, at the age of 55. Cathy has peacefully joined her dear parents, Bob (2011), and Ella (Krouse – 1997) Lisso, who hailed from Greensville, Ontario.
Cathy found immense joy in her role as a loving mother to Patrick and Chantel Hickey (and her future son-in-law Jacob Oudekerk), as well as being the cherished Nina to her two precious grandchildren, Weston and Madison. The loss of their FaceTime sessions with Nina, especially Weston, who adored watching Paw Patrol with her, leaves a profound void in their lives.
Our hearts ache as we remember Cathy’s compassionate spirit, demonstrated through her regular visits to check on her mother-in-law, Beverly and (Pius 2014) Hickey during her strolls. Cathy will always be fondly remembered by her partner of the past decade, Phil Godwin, Phil’s children; Justin, and Lucas, and her ex-husband Joe Hickey & (Sonya Clipperton), with whom she shared a journey since 1988.
Cathy’s departure leaves a deep void in the lives of her close cousins John & Sharon Furlong, Dave & Jane Furlong, Karen (Furlong) & Brian Egoff, and especially her Aunt Eleanor & the late Jack Furlong (2012). She will be greatly missed by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews. Special mention goes to her dear friends Shelly & Murray Reid, who provided crucial support to Cathy throughout her challenging battle with breast cancer since 2018. Cathy’s walking companions Liz and Kelly, also offered unwavering support. Cathy’s resilience and strength throughout her battle, much like Rocky in his boxing matches, are a testament to her character.
For 25 years, Cathy dedicated herself to TD Canada Trust, starting in Hamilton and concluding her career at the Grand Bend branch. Her absence will be deeply felt by many clients, colleagues, and friends alike.
You will forever remain in our hearts, Cathy. Until we meet again, we love you dearly.
The family extends sincere gratitude to the staff at Victoria Hospital in London, Ontario, for their compassionate care during Cathy’s final weeks.
The family wishes to express a special thank you to all the staff at Jessica’s House Hospice for ensuring Cathy’s comfort during her stay. Additionally, heartfelt appreciation to Don and Marcia Oudekerk for caring for their grandchildren while Chantel spent time with her mom.
A service honoring Cathy will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 456 Main Street South, EXETER on Saturday, April 6, 2024 at 12 noon, with a celebration of her life to follow, everyone welcome. Cremation has taken place.
In lieu of flowers, donations to Jessica’s House Hospice (Exeter, Ontario) or Breast Cancer Canada will be gratefully acknowledged by Cathy’s family.
