Catherine is preceded in death by father, Martin Wilson, Jr., mother, Linda Sue Wilson, and granddaughter, Olivia Marie Meginley.

Cathy was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and moved to Natchitoches, Louisiana, as a child. She loved her family fiercely and shared a deep and enduring relationship with God.

Cathy cherished spending time with her family and close friends, often filling every room with laughter through her candid humor. Her bright smile and contagious laugh made everyone feel welcome and included.

She loved capturing life’s moments through photos of her “tribe,” preserving the joy of those times to look back on for years to come. Intelligent and quick-witted, Cathy always seemed to know what to do in any situation – often with a hilarious twist. Mischievous, outgoing, and endlessly friendly, she truly never met a stranger.

Hardworking and devoted, Cathy treasured vacations with family and friends whenever she had the chance. She made every special occasion a priority, especially birthdays, ensuring everyone she loved felt seen and celebrated. No matter what challenges she faced, she remained resilient, giving her all and greeting the world with courage and grace.

Cathy was a woman of faith, love, humor, kindness, and compassion. May she rest in peace, reunited in heaven with her beloved Ozzie.

Those left to cherish her memory include her three daughters, Amanda Kay Delrie, Jennifer Denise Delrie, and Caitlyn Elizabeth Smith; five grandchildren, Aedan Delrie, Madison Gorum, Logan Lindsay, Layla Meginley, and Jason Carl Foster, Jr.; three brothers, Mark Willis, Danny Wilson, Timothy Wilson; sister, Laura Stanley and a host of beloved nieces, nephews and cherished friends.

Honorary pallbearers will be Karen Denham, Mary Mitchell, Amanda Delrie, Jennifer Delrie, Caitlyn Smith, Madison Gorum, Kim Freeland, Sheri Freeland, and Aedan Delrie.
