Cathy was one of the most friendly, kind, caring, and all around great people that I have ever met in the fire service and I am honored and proud to have known her while she was with us. She was a true friend while we both served with The Lake Ariel Fire Company and will truly be missed by all that knew her. When situations were making me frown, you managed to bring a smile to my face, just through conversation. People with your open friendliness are hard to come by. You were a unique individual and I will always remember you. I will cherish the talks we had at the station and the time we spent working with the Lake Ariel picnic. It is so hard to believe that you are not with us anymore - God has called you home too soon. It is with great honor that I can say that all the people you knew in the fire service can take comfort in knowing that you will be watching over us all until the day that we too are called home. Rest In Peace my friend...

Sis this wasn't the way it was supposed to go. The "A" team was supposed to set it straight. But like I said we will continue on, this is how we honor you by getting back on the engine. You'll be with me on every job I go on. We've got it from her.
