    Dear Les, Doris, Veronica & Family,

    We are so very sorry for your loss. I have very fond memories of Cathy, beginning with when you were our neighbours, so long ago, in Russeldale. Her friendship continued with my mom over the years, and she always looked forward to her “monthly letters from Cathy”. I am so glad she had the opportunity to visit with her, this past November.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, at this very difficult time.

    Love, Leah and Mary

    My condolences to the Glanville and Zimmer families. Cathy touched the lives of many and in particular she hit a home run with her institution of “if you grew up in Zurich” . Cathy created a forum for many to share memories and reacquaint themselves with long lost friends. She truly inspired a wide range of conversations and opinions and was complimentary to everyone. I had not seen Cathy for many years but I and many felt she was a big part of our enjoyment of the past. Cathy will be missed.
