She called me another son, and she treated me better than anyone else in the world! I know she had been struggling and I'm glad that she can finally just be pain free and happy writing her poems in heaven for everyone she loves! I'm not ashamed to admit losing her will be the hardest thing I've had to go through and she is worth the tears. I love you grandma I just wish I would've been there with you.

Krista Smithson

I didn't get to know her too long, but one night she and I really bonded. She told me "as long as your walking around, Wanda Catt will never die". Funny how I'm so much like a woman I'd only recently come to know. I'm so proud. I love you grandma, you'll never be forgotten.

I will miss my grandma. I loved spending time with her playing games and working in her yard. She would always make me laugh by telling me funny stories about my dad when he was a boy. I will hold the memories I have with her in my heart forever.

Wanda was a wonderful mother-in-law to me and a woman that I admired. She was always warm and welcoming to me from the first time I met her. She had so much energy, patience, inner strength and was always positive no matter what the situation and people around her, qualities that I would like to have. I will miss her wonderful presence and smiling face and will only have the best memories of her. I can still hear her saying "Yyyyesss"� and kicking her leg up when she was excited about a high-scoring word at scrabble! I am grateful that I was able to know her and have her in mine and my children's lives. I pray for comfort for her grieving family but I feel relieved that god has ended her suffering and she is now with him and those loved ones that went before her, where we will all be together again someday. Her loving daughter,

I have many fond memories while growing up, of being in the "Catt house", it was a safe and fun place to be for a teenager,we were'nt there because Steve was so popular, Mom Catt was. Can't believe so much time has gone by. Wanda is surely in heaven, no more pain and smiling. God bless you all in your time of loss.
