Catherine Lois Bennett

Passed away peacefully at home on Sunday January 3, 2021 in Sunnyside, Newfoundland, at the age of 68. Predeceased by her parents Wesley and Emma (Saunders) Bennett and sister, Gail Bennett. Cathy will forever be remembered with loving memories by her daughter Jackie Edwards, siblings Janice, Susan (Don), Al King (Susan), Margaret, and her numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and extended family and dear friends.

Jackie,

So sorry to hear about your Mother’s passing. Rob Champagne sent me your Mom’s obituary and I wanted to write. I hope that’s okay.

I am thinking of you and your family and sending you my deepest condolences.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Best,
Cathy.

I remember chatting with Cathy at Gail’s funeral. I hadn’t seen or spoken to Cathy in a very long time, so it was nice getting reacquainted. My condolences to Jackie, my first best friend Susan, Jan and family and friends who love Cathy and will miss her.

Jackie,
I was so sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. I met Cathy when I moved to Regina in the fall of /93. We had lots of fun there and I followed her to the Waterloo region a few years after she moved back to Ont. We continued to chat – and laugh once she moved further east. I had planned on a trip to Nfld. last Sept. She was a true friend!

Cathy was my real friend in Canada. We started our work at Manulife together in 2002 and became friends. Cathy was the best programmer I ever met, her logic and her code was bulletproof. She always gave me very helpfull advices. She always was very curious about how people live in other countries, in another culture. I’m so sad about this news. My condolences to all Cathy’s family members.
