1936-2020
It has recently come to our attention that Catherine passed away in 2020. Unfortunately we have no details about how she died.
Catherine’s roots in the church go all the way back to Chalmers United’s Sunday School. Vernon Turner knew her from those days, and from when Catherine and her husband Ross lived on Egan Avenue and went to Verdun United. Vernon recalls that Catherine’s father worked at the Verdun greenhouses when they were located next to the fire station on Lasalle Boulevard around Willibrord.
After Verdun United amalgamated with Crawford Park, Catherine still liked to attend events and services at SouthWest Mission, where she always had a smile for everyone. In later years she lived in Ville Emard.
Ross Cater passed away in 2008 and Rev. David celebrated his life at Wilson’s Funeral Home. Catherine has been buried with him in Mount Royal Cemetery. We extend condolences to all who knew her. May she rest in peace.
