Cathy was born on October 15, 1969, daughter to the late William Garrett Rector and the living Sue Maxey.

We part with our beloved Cathy with the traditional words, Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust,” in the sure and certain hope of the Resurrection to eternal life. “We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.” II Corinthians 5:8 NKJV.

The family wishes to express their gratitude for the heartfelt condolences and kind gestures shown during this time of sorrow. Cathy’s life, marked by authenticity and a gentle strength, will be commemorated in the truest sense through the memories held close by those who had the pleasure of knowing her.
