Catherine A. Karr


So sorry for your loss of Cathy. I was just thinking back the other day and remembering that Cathy was the one that taught me how to clean the stalls out to the barn. Growing up I remember Cathy coming through the office after chores all cleaned up and going off to do errands with Dave, stopping by to talk. She also came along on the road trips for drill team; she also let me use her horse, Star, briefly for 4H before I got Shiloh. One day when my mom was working way late, I can remember Cathy walking in with two hot dinner plates for us! She will be greatly missed!

David and Karr family, I was deeply saddened to see the loss of Cathy. I have many wonderful memories of her and the Karr family. I will always remember when Angie and I were little and the things we all did. I remember going to Arkansas with the family and learning how to water ski because I was afraid to let go of the rope and all the fish in the water that I could see and eating my first frog legs there. I also remember the trampoline in the back yard on Miami. To all of you in the family and extended foster family – Cathy will be missed every day and was truly a wonderful and FUNNY lady. My thoughts are with you all. Joanne

We had many fun time in High School and some after we got out. I moved to Colorado in 1979 and we pretty much lost contact....just hearing from others. So sad to see friends passing on. Prayers for the comfort and peace of the family.
