Bill Clayton posted a condolence

I met Cathy -- and she met me -- in November, 1987 and we quickly formed a professional partnership that lasted until 2001. (Cathy was my Administrative Assistant at D'Arcy and its many iterations over the years). She was fabulous, professional, iconic and consequential. And possessive. She counseled people that "they really didn't want to see Bill this afternoon, tomorrow would be better," or suggested that "she would handle this person differently or use a different tone". She was always right. And she loved Sambuca at Christmas. Very very much. It made her very very happy.
So over the years, two professional colleagues became-conspirators and then friends and then close-family friends and then family. There were weddings (ours) and surprise birthdays (hers) dinners and phone calls ... and a whole lot of love. Always love.
I know this isn't easy for her family and friends ... for all of us ... because we all loved and liked her so much. But I also believe we are each better human beings for having known her.
Thank you Cathy. Thank you.
