Catherine was a communicant of Corpus Christi Catholic Church where she was instrumental in the rebuilding of the church's new sanctuary. She was an avid card player, and greatly enjoyed playing bridge with her friends at the Pooler Senior Center.

Catherine was preceded in death by two sisters, Ann Stahl and Ellen Heck. Catherine is survived by two sisters, Joyce O’Connell and Regina Fagan; a daughter, Maureen Parrish and three sons, Jimmy Zupfer, Dennis Zupfer, and Danny Zupfer, eight grandchildren, fourteen great grandchildren, and one great-great grandson, all of which she was always so proud to be alive to enjoy.

A Memorial Visitation will be on Friday, April 22nd at 10AM at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:30 AM. Interment will take place at Forest Lawn Memory Gardens, next to her husband James, immediately after the Burial Mass.
