Carol Darlene Cathey, 71, born in Jacksonville, Texas on October 28, 1946, took her last breath in front of us and her first breath in the face of Jesus, on September 30, 2018, at home surrounded by her loving family.
Service Information: In honor of our mom’s wishes, there will be a graveside service which will be 1:00 PM, October 3, 2018, at Baker Cemetery, 6819 County Road 4042, Kemp, Texas 75143. Flowers may be sent to Lake Shore Funeral Home, 5201 Steinbeck Bend Drive, Waco, Texas.
Our mom was a phenomenally kind-hearted woman with a deep and unconditional love for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was always their biggest fan and cheerleader. She found great joy in her “fur-babies”, bird watching, gardening, writing poetry, cooking and baking, and spending time with her beloved family and friends. She had a contagious laugh and loved to make others smile. She is greatly missed and will never be forgotten.

Cathey of Waco, Larry D. Cathey Jr. and wife Shannon of Valley Mills, Ashley Cathey of Valley Mills, Alex Meredith and husband Ryan, of McGregor, Whitney Cathey of Mabank, Dillon Cathey of Mabank, Rance Cathey and wife Callie, of Valley Mills, Derek Cathey of Mabank, and Lacey Cathey of Valley Mills; great-grandchildren, Easton, Lane and Marlee; sisters and brothers, Mildred Tate of Conroe, TX; Roger Moore of Riesel, TX; Jerry Moore of Conroe, TX; Mary Busby of Kemp, TX, Vera Sherman of Seven Points, TX and many nieces and nephews.
The family wishes to express a special thank you to the Kindred Hospice team for their exceptional care of our Mom and family.

Condolences for the family of “Carol Darlene Cathey”
I’m so sad about your mom passing. There is great comfort in knowing she was surrounded by y’all in her final hours. I wish I had had that opportunity when Dad passed. I’m sorry I’m not able to be there to pay my respects but please know you’re in my prayers and I love you all dearly!
I wish that I could be there also, but please know I loved your Mom so much. Her laughter is what I cherish the most about her and how she always saw the good in people. I miss the days when my Mom and Aunt Carol were just two women raising their kids and having a blast doing it! Love to you all and always Aunt Carol!
Her laugh will always be one of my favorites sounds ❤️. I will miss her so much but I can’t help but think of how happy she must be talking with Granny, Uncle Johnny and Uncle TE. I love you Aunt Carol. My prayers are with you Mike, Larry and Stephanie love you guys.
Sorry for your loss , you will be in my prayers and in my heart.
We all love you Mema and miss you terribly. We have told the kids you are in Heaven with Jesus doing many puzzles!

Aunt Carol will be missed by many. She’s with Granny, Uncle Tommy and my daddy so she’s wrapped in their loving arms. There’s no more pain for her, just a healthy heavenly body. RIP Aunt Carol.
It is a hard thing to go thru, but in time the pain will go away and we know this to be true.
From my family to yours , you will be in my prayers, she is in the house of the Lord. She will always keep a watchful eye upon each and everyone of us
I am very sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful woman and will be missed by all.
It was a delight to meet and care for Mrs. Cathey. She had a great laugh and strong spirit. May God grant you peace and comfort during your time of sorrow.
To the Cathey Family, Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss of your Mom, Grandmother, Great grandmother. It is so hard to loose a family member especially at such a young age. Please remember that we are promised by Jesus that we have an opportunity to see our loved ones again here on earth. John 5:28+29 gives us such a wonderful hope, please read it for yourself and be encouraged as I was when I lost my Dad.
