Cathy Love Passes Away

 


   Cathy Gene Love, loving wife, mother, grandmother, and friend was called home to our Lord on Monday, April 24, 2023. She passed away peacefully at her home in Davidsonville, MD, after an almost two year battle with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
    Cathy is survived by her husband, Dennis R. Love; her sons Christopher D. Love, Shaun M. Love (Victoria), Patrick A. Love (Tracy), and daughter Kimberly L. Piermatteo (Marc); nine beautiful grandchildren (Ty, Jace, Benjamin, Cade, Darcy, Nora, Analeigh, Everett, and Nathan); and goddaughter, Marie Basil. She was preceded in death by her parents, Gene and Ann Stinard of Clarion, PA.
    Cathy was born in Philipsburg, PA on January 8, 1950, and graduated in 1971 from the Clarion University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Elementary Education. She and Denny married in 1973 and raised four loving children in Davidsonville, MD. She was a wonderfully devoted mother and grandmother, a dedicated teacher, and an active member in her church. She taught elementary grades at Emporium, PA, Georgetown East, Central, and Waugh Chapel Elementary Schools. She also taught at Calvary Center pre-school. Her greatest joys in life were her grandchildren and all the wonderful time shared with her family, especially on the Outer Banks of NC. Cathy was kind, warm, generous, and best known for her gift of beautifully written words. She lived her life with the utmost grace and compassion and will be deeply missed by her family, friends and all who knew her.
