Cathy was a lovely and kind person. She always saw the best in people and there to offer a helping hand or support. My condolences to Cindy and your family.

I'm Charlie, Charlie Smith. I knew Cathy from birth. She was about 2 years younger then me. Never really paid much attention to her during her first few years of life. I did pay attention to her Mom and Dad and why? Because my parents did. Her mother, Barbara, she was the predessor of Cathy. Always bubbling with joy. My parents and her parents had many, many great times over coffee and crumbly cakes. It just never got old. I can remember going to Cathy's house as a young kid, by then, maybe 10 or so - I was always amazed at the glaring shine of the hardwood floor. It was like glass. You walk in the front door, shining floors! I can even remember (going back at least 55 years), Cathy's dad had a rocking chair and it was set perfectly by the vent!
I was at her home many times but I was never worried about messing up their tidy home. Never once, not even once. My Mom, Doris Smith, she and Cathy's Mom Barbara - they quickly became friends. They both struggled with weight issues and they both struggled to lose weight. Sometimes, it seemed that they had won the battle. They never did win that battle but oh my, they won many more important battles!
Let me digress. In 1973, I was 13 and I was elected President of the Youth Group. John Pisarcik (sp?) was the Youth Pastor. I took my job seriously and I 'hired' the best talent possible: Cathy Walls and Terry Millman. Both had different talents. Cathy? Nothing but excitement to each and every endeavor! Terry? A bit more reserved, maybe you might say taking an over-site role. But Terry managed to cobble all of the ideas of me and Cathy into 'something.'
I have not spoken to Cathy Walls for decades. I know I met with Terry Williams in the 1980's, at her parents home. I was just so 'not' connected at that time but I should have been. That was a failure of mine.
Linda Millman? She was also important in this story. She did things and had talents that none of us three did. I can mention many others that were close to the heart of Cathy. Trust me - many, many and in fact all that met and knew Cathy - she made their life better just for simply knowing her.
I suppose - because Cathy and Terry were so important to me in my youth, I take the loss hard. I take it a bit harder because Cathy truly lived her faith and kindness every single day. I wish I could say the same.
Cathy would want that of me and all of us.
Rest in God's Arms Cathy. You were special. Very special. I'll see you soon! Charlie Smith
Cathy was a kind, sweet, soul.
So sorry to hear of her passing.
Deepest sympathies to her family!
May she be resting in everlasting peace.
My friendship with Cathy started 43 years ago when she approached me and extended to me the gift of her friendship during college. She saw that our lives and work would overlap within our dormitory walls; and she wanted that overlap to be meaningful and spiritually productive. We prayed together, we dreamed together, we laughed together, and sometimes we cried together. Pretty much of what happened in my life that year was together with Cathy. Our friendship and commitment to prayerfully support each other deepened and strengthened through the years. I owe to Cathy a debt of gratitude for showing herself friendly to me in the first place and then continuing to be a true friend who has helped me walk with God through the ups and downs of life. She was always there for me. Always. And I believe she was that kind of true friend to many, many people. She was compassion in its truest form. - Kathy Murphy
Cathy a beautiful woman of God. I first met Cathy at Christian School of York where my youngest daughter had the privilege of having her as a third grade teacher. Her smile was contagious and her kindness superior. My daughter said she was always kind and made them feel special. She taught them "Go Light the World". Cathy was a beacon for Jesus. My older daughter played basketball with Joy and at a gathering at their home we were introduced to a college basketball team we still cheer on. Through adversity she remained a light, her strength from the Lord. Our hearts are saddened, and our prayers for the family, may her memories comfort your during this time. Candace Schwartz and daughters.
It is hard to believe that Cathy is gone from us. It is our loss but heavens gain. Cathy's kindness will be missed and remembered. I was privileged to get to know her and her family when we were just young at the trailer park in Lewes. Our families spent time together in Delaware and Pennsylvania. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to her family. Dan and Sherry Brandt
I am saddened by the sudden loss of Cathy. She was such a kind and caring person. We first met as children at her grandparents trailer park where we had our trailer for years and would come down every summer. Sometimes we would even visit their home in the winter. I am glad we kept in touch over the years. This is one of my favorite pictures of Cathy, myself, Cindy, my sister Lauren. Rest well Cathy, gone too soon! - Lynne
