Condolences

    To Catherine’s family, Our sympathies to you all at the loss of your Catherine. What a delight she was and blessed each of us as we got to know her when she joined Epic City Church a couple of years ago. She was just one of those people who you notice and are drawn to and enjoy to be around. Her lovely long red hair, her beautiful smile and her feisty, overcoming and loving spirit will be missed by all. I was sorry to not know her health had taken such a serious turn but am thankful for the working of the Holy Spirit among the body that made it possible for many of us to visit with her and pray with her before her passing. It is our comfort as Believers that our loss is Heavens gain and that she rests in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and she is in perfect health, perfect peace. We pray for you all in your loss and time of sorrow. Catherine was loved.

    My condolences, I always remember seeing the wedding picture of her and Dickie, at grandma Valdez’s. She was so beautiful. I loved her beautiful red hair. Then facebook came around. And I was able to get back in touch with her. I so enjoyed her posts. I will miss so many things about her. I know I will see her again. My love and prayers to you all.

    Mary Ellen, and Emily, we love you and miss you all so much. Even though we didn’t keep in touch, your family had a great positive impact on our lives. We enjoyed the stories you told of your mother as well.
