    Sharing many memories of aunt Katie and your family!

  5. I am saddened to learn of Cathy’s passing. She was a dear lady and will be missed immensely. Condolences to Carol, my good friend. HUGS

  6. Carol Ann and Raymond, please accept my sincere condolences for Aunt Katie’s passing. Of all of Mom’s sisters, I think that Aunt Katie and Pug seemed the most alike in their playfulness, irreverence, and stubbornness. Like the whole Canaan, Aunt Katie did have a full heart of love. I attended her service virtually yesterday and it was a beautiful service. As with all Canaan services, I liked learning more about our family through those shared memories moments. I can only imagine all of those Canaan girls up in heaven!! Love, Cousin Trish
