Dear Michael, it was with great sadness and shock that Anita and I learned of the passing of Cathy. Both of us knew Cathy from her Dundrum Ranger days and I came to know her better when she started coming down to Inistioge as a volunteer preparing the site for the Woodstock Jamboree. When Cathy was on one of these work parties she brightened the whole place up with her mischievous sense of fun and humour. We send you and your family our sincerest condolences at this very sad time. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anamh.

Ar dheis De go raibh a hanam

I was devestated and shocked to learn of Cathy's untimely passing. My deepest sympathies go out to her family and friends. She was a passionate educator and she leaves behind an indelible mark on our profession and the built environment. RIP.

My sincere and heartfelt condolences to Michael, Eoin and Naomi and all the O'Keeffe and Prunty Families. Such a heartbreaking and devastating loss.

Sometimes in our lives, we meet someone special, someone who is such a beautiful person, inside and out, a rare human being, Cathy was such a person. A terrible loss, a life too short but thankfully lived to the full. She touched so many, her kindness, her generosity, her marvelous sense of fun, which was always such a huge part of her character all the way back to our school days. Her immense sense of responsibility, always giving personally and professionally. A loss such as this so difficult to accept and comprehend but perhaps made a little easier to bear due to the many wonderful and happy memories, these will always bring a smile to the hearts and souls of those of us she touched.

Rest in peace my dear friend. Thanks for all you have done and given, a life to be proud of. Michele
