Cathi's father (Kenneth Duggan) and niece (Cortney Duggan) precede her in death and were waiting to embrace her. Cathi was born in Renton, Washington February 21, 1959 and grew up in Hershey, Nebraska. She was a graduate of Hershey High School where she was very active in several clubs and athletics. Cathi furthered her education at Mid Plains Community College in North Platte and went on to work as a Paralegal in Lincoln, Nebraska, a career that she loved and was very proud of. Yet her proudest accomplishment was raising her two daughters. They, along with her grandchildren, were her pride and joy, the love she had for them was written all over her face. Cathi moved to Ogallala in 1998, where she was quick to make life long friends. Cathi loved walking Cassie to the park on a nice day, she loved chili and cinnamon rolls and Husker football, she looked forward to her Old Fashioned donuts on Saturday mornings, she took pride in gifting her home baked cookies and puppy chow, she always made sure to have her toes painted and most of all she always made herself available to her family and friends. Cathi will be remembered for her witty sense of humor, her sincere kindness and thoughtfulness, her unconditional love, friendship and STRENGTH. She is our hero, we are so proud to call her our Mom, Daughter, Sister, Friend.
