This is your day, Catherine ... let our spirits be stirred with renewed hope. “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of God is upon you.” Isiah 60:1 Everynow and then, a very ordinary, obscure person walks among us, and when we meet, we sense something special ... a “blessing” has just touched our lives. So it was, with Catherine Keefe, who spent some 25 years of her 94 years here in Walkerton. Her unwavering love and commitment to God, and our Blessed Mother, deeolv enhanced her relationshio with her family, friends and acquaintances. Her numerous artistic talents were an outpouring of her deep spirituality, given freely and generously. To those who came to Catherine’s door for help or comfort, never were they refused. Her love and concern extended well into the animal world, not limited to her own pet poodles. Catherine was an advocate for preserving all forms of life. Just as she viewed life as a “gift,” so those of us who were privileged to know and love her, thank God, for the gift of Catherine Keefe, who returned to her Creator on Wednesday, August 7, 1996.
