Cathy, you will never know how much of an impact you had on me. At Winnipeg Remand Centre, you were my supervisor in Admissions. You taught me many things, most importantly to always be respectful, rational and especially professional in all my dealings. You certainly earned the respect and admiration of all who had the privilege of knowing you. In this industry, that is a huge testament to your character. I will remember you with fondness and gratitude. My condolences to your family, friends, and colleagues. My sincere congratulations to you on your return to the Father! God Bless! - Posted by: Dallis Hafichuk (Co-Worker) on: Sep 06, 2007
