Cathy Ann Pawlowski, born on February 25, 1949, in Bridgeport, Conn., passed away in Burlington, Vt., on January 7, 2025.
A longtime Vermont resident, Cathy was an avid reader, a lover of movies and a talented fiber artist. She was a lifetime member of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America and a leader of the Arts and Crafts group at the Pines Senior Living Community, where she lived for many years and will be remembered for her quarterly “Season” cards.
Possessed of a deep compassion and love of life, Cathy often said, “The world may not be fair, but I can make my part of the world fair.” She is survived by her brother, Kirk, and sister-in-law, Patricia, of Vancouver, Wash.; her son, Leonard, and his wife, Juno; and her beloved grandson, David, of Huntingburg, Ind.
The family wishes to thank the staff of the University of Vermont Home Health & Hospice and the McClure Miller Respite House for the care they provided in her final months.
