Tom and family, Words can not express the shock and loss I feel with Irma's passing. I pray each passing day, her smile, and warmth will surround you as it does me. May the goodness of God continue to bless you, that is what Irma would have wanted. A massage friend, Diane Swift Gravley

I just learned of the news of Irma’s sudden passing and I am shocked and deeply saddened. My heart goes out to you, Tom, and your entire family! I grew up not far from the Cattoor’s and while we didn’t have a close “family” relationship, Irma’s warmth made a great impression on me that I have never forgotten. Several of my interactions with her were when she was in my home or in my office at the Coca-Cola plant giving me an insurance physical. Never once did the needles she stuck in my harm hurt me or the poking and prodding she did bother me. Only Irma could make a physical such a pleasant experience! I have come to know that she had this affect on most everyone she came in contact with. Tom, I am praying for you and your family as you grieve such a huge loss.

I recently became a massage client and spent fewer than 10 hours with Irma. In that short time we bonded like old friends (both RNs, Catholic to the core, Grandmas, love to sew, etc.). It's so rare in life to meet a person you feel like you've known forever. That twinkle in her eyes, those deep dimples, that sweet voice offering so much knowledge and empathy. Irma was a jewel of a woman who exemplified the epitome of caring. I cannot imagine the depth of your sorrow. I was shocked to learn of Irma's death today. Happy Birthday in heaven with Jesus, dearest, kindest Irma. Thank you for gracing this world with your beauty and your love. God bless you, Tom and all the family. Family and faith were obviously foremost with Irma. I will be praying for peace and healing for all of you.

I first met Miss Irma while working at Park Side Elementary. She was a great school nurse. We then met up at Hope Harbor, where she was a great nurse and mentor to our girls. She truly was a woman after God's own heart. Fly high Sweet Lady. She will be missed by us at Hope Harbor.

You will be missed, Irma! I remember on your last day at St Mary’s the entire 6th grade pretended to be sick only because they all wanted to say goodbye to you before you retired! Now our hearts are broken because you are gone too soon.

So sorry to hear of Irma's passing. I had the opportunity to meet her a few years ago with her Tender Touch Therapy. She was so sweet and so good at what she did! Sending heartfelt prayers to the family.

Irma was a "newcomer" friend with a kind heart and such a delightful presence. Hold fast to the promise that God's love and comfort will be with your family now and each day as He holds you tightly in His grip.

We would like to express our deepest sympathy over your loss. May you find comfort in your loving memories and the warmth of family and friends. A scripture that has uplifted many who have experienced such a loss is found at Revelation 21:4. There it describes a time when death and pain will be gone forever. We will even see our loved ones again who we have lost in death. John 5:28 “Do not be amazed this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out” It is our hope that these words bring you a measure of comfort during this difficult time as well.

It is with overwhelming sadness that I offer sincere sympathy to the family and multitude of friends of this dear, lifetime friend. She has been the truest example to me of how to live your life in a Christ-like way. Though she knew that I loved her and valued her friendship, I surely never told her often enough.

Dear family and friends of Irma , Please accept my deepest condolences. It’s always a painful tragedy to lose a loved one in death. It saddens us to think that we may never see our loved one’s smile again or hear their laughter again. But God has promised all of us that one day death will not exist and that we will see our dead loved ones again. Revelation 21:4 says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more,neither will mourning, nor outcry. nor pain be anymore, the former things have passed away." I hope that this brings your family a measure of solace during this difficult time. If you have more questions about the Bible and its promises, please feel free to contact me.
