Catherine Ann Hawkins

Catherine Ann Hawkins (nee Rowed)

“Cathy”

May 25 1950-March 5 2025

With profound gratitude for knowing her, and having been blessed to be loved by her, we sadly share the passing of our beloved Wife,  Mother(4+), Grandmother(11+), Godmother, Sister, Cousin, Aunty, and dearest friend to both humans and animals.

Joined in rest by her mother, Dr. Roma, her father, Dr. Robert (Bob), as well as other much-loved family and friends.

A treasure deeply held to those who experienced her kindness, her grace, her style, her appreciation for her country, the arts, love of reading, her pure heart, and her generous, cheerfully-thoughtful ways.

Her family always being her greatest joy, behind her love of Jesus. ~How great thou art~

Rowed Bros warriors a constant comfort along with music, shared times on skates, skis, trails, phone calls, tea time, happy hours and moon dancing with the little ones.

Unyielding positivity in all her days, rain or shine, and extra exuberance in the snow - her spirit always bright - she is cherished deeply by many.

A song always in her heart accompanied by a snap in her fingertips, sparkling blue eyes, and a beaming smile.

Cheerleading for all in life and forever more in the heavens.

Catherine never wavered in her compassion for others.

Her memory will live on and inspire strength, resilience and generosity in those whose lives she touched.

We love you always Mom, Cath, Darling, Anma, Amma!

Miss Kitty Cat…

Big sister C... 

A+, out of the park, top shelf, first class, our sweet thoughts forever among fields of gold. 

A Celebration of Life will be announced and held in time to share, laugh, reminisce and honour Cathy’s beautiful spirit. Scottish Pipers piping for this fair lady.

With sincere heartfelt thanks to North Shore Hospice, all involved with Palliative Care Service, Lions Gate Hospital 7 West, 6 West, nurses, doctors and support staff, as well as dedicated hospice volunteers.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate if those capable would consider a donation to assist with Memorial expenses: PayPal - adhawk4me@yahoo.ca
