Story

 

Catriona was a caring, beautiful and loving wife to Anish, daughter to Janet, sister to Fiona and Ian and friend to many. Everyone that knew Cat is devastated by her death and the sudden nature of it, but feel proud and lucky to have known her. People will remember her for her quiet confidence, warmth, love and loyalty.

Cat was an outdoors girl, an avid rower in the past with a passion for skiing and cycling.  Cat and Anish were in the midst of training to ride the infamous L’Etape Du Tour – a mountain stage of the Tour De France, which finishes on the top of .  They would have been in later in July to partake in the race.  Cat was a strong cyclist who would think nothing of a 100 mile ride up and down mountains – always with a smile!  She has filled so much into her short life.

Cat lived for her family, friends and Millie, her beloved cocker spaniel.  She was a person that brought the best out in others and would have made a wonderful mother to any children Cat and Anish might have had in the future.   Cat will be missed by many and for a long time. Nothing will bring her back but there is so much that will remind us of her.

The ability to get around is vital in order to live a full life yet thousands of people with sight loss never leave home alone. We empower visually impaired people to do that and rely on the support of the public to fund the guide dog service.
