Barry, Jane and families;
Please accept our deepest sympathy. I remember a Catherine of many years ago, at the Robinson and Hicks picnics in the summer. We always had so much fun playing those silly games and contests. The family competitions were always greeted with laughter. I remember a vivacious lady of grace, who usually had a smile on her face. I remember your family’s connections with the Exeter Times Advocate as well. She will be missed by your family but her many memories will help to keep her with you still. She is at peace now. God bless.
