    My sincere condolences Patricia ,Mike and families . I worked with Mary Catherine for 11 years. She was a good woman who was proud of her family and caring towards her coworkers. She had a sense of humour which would show up when least expected. She took her job to heart and worked hard every day.. May you rest in peace Mary Catherine.
