Catherine T. Gorman, 88, of Wooster, formerly of Millersburg, died Feb. 23 at Smithville-Western Care Center, after a lengthy illness.
Catherine was one of the kindest and most gracious people many of her friends and family ever knew.
She was born Dec. 3, 1925, in Camden, N.J., the daughter of William and Catherine (Carson) Hartman, and married the Rev. William J. Gorman on Feb. 4, 1956. He survives.
Catherine lived most of her life in Camden, N.J., and Millersburg. She was a devoted wife, mother and friend. The importance of her faith was exemplified in how she treated people every day of her life.
She was a longtime catechism teacher, primarily at St. Peter Catholic Church in Millersburg, where she taught children of all ages and spent many years as a high school instructor and marriage preparation counselor.
Catherine also was a quilter, a gardener, a reader, and a great friend to many. She loved to cook, and there was always room for one more chair at her dining table. The family's Christmas parties in Millersburg are still remembered throughout the community for their festivity.
Surviving are a daughter, Mary Anne (Don) Cunningham of Elyria, and sons, Thomas of Bowling Green, Robert (Kathy) of Wooster and Patrick (Denise) of Madison, Wis.; grandchildren, Cassie and Susie Cunningham, Ben, Anna and Sam Gorman, Joseph, Mary Grace and John Gorman, Katie and Sarah Gorman; sisters, Jane (Joseph) Kenney of Cherry Hill, N.J., and Anne (Patrick) Kennedy of Pennsauken, N.J.
Preceding her in death were her parents; a sister, Mary; and a brother, William.
Services will be Friday at 11 a.m. at St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, 527 Beall Ave., Wooster. Interment will be in St. Mary Cemetery. Calling hours will be at the church one hour prior to the services. McIntire, Bradham & Sleek Funeral Home, Wooster, is assisting the family.
Catherine will be dearly missed by her family and friends who are glad she is "free at last."
Memorial contributions may be made to St. Mary Catholic Church Endowment Fund, P.O. Box 109, Wooster 44691; or LifeCare Hospice, 2525 Back Orrville Road, Wooster 44691.
