July 11, 1963 – March 19, 2024
Peacefully, at the Carman Memorial Hospital on Tuesday, March 19, 2024, Catherine June Reid passed away with her family by her side.
She is survived by her loving husband, Bruce, her three daughters, Ashley (Jamie), Amanda (Steve), and Chelsey (Dean), her grandchildren, Lexie, Samuel, Thomas, Gracey, Charlie, Bailey, Theo, Nash, Owen and Brody. Her mother Anita, sister Audrey (Peter), sister in laws, Merle (Stan), and Dorothy (Bob), as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
She is pre-deceased by her father Peter G Hiebert and brother-in-law Gerald Unrau.
Cathy, the older of two girls was born in Pilot Mound, MB. At a young age she moved to BC, where she would eventually start her own family and have her three girls.
Crafting was always a large part of her life, starting with her work at a small craft store making keepsakes to her eventual love of scrapbooking. To know Cathy, was to know she could be found scrapbooking in the winter, and gardening in the summer.
Gardening was her other passion, most of all the growing of flowers. Every color of the rainbow could be found in “Grandmas Garden”. She had hundreds of flowers and could tell you the name of each and every one.
Cathy’s greatest love of all was her family. Bruce, her girls, but especially her grandchildren.
Even with her busy schedule, Grandma was always on top of the goings on of her grandchildren. From the daily facetime chats to the monthly baby pictures. Weekends with grandma will always be remembered.
“There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains.”
A private family service will be held.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Katie Cares, or the Palliative Care Unit in Carman.
