Obituary for Catherine Anne Stutzman
Catherine Anne Stutzman was born on Feb. 20, 1941 in Johnstown, Pa., to the late Marie Ella McGuire Morgret and Clarence Russell Morgret. She was the youngest of three daughters: the late Delores Anne Grant and Patricia Anne Fyock, who survives her.
Catherine passed away peacefully on July 22, 2020, to be with the Lord. She was surrounded by her loved ones at Presbyterian/St. Luke's Medical Center in Denver.
She is survived by her devoted and loving husband, Duane. She is also survived by her children Scott Stutzman, Erika Stutzman Deakin and Meghan Stutzman Disch. She is survived by all of her grandchildren: Siena and Hudson Stutzman, Lucy and Maggie Deakin, and Matthew and Emma Disch. Her loving sister-in-law, Barbara Good, survives her, as well as many nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her dear in-laws Merle and Ruth Stutzman, who treated her like a daughter.
She grew up in Johnstown, and graduated from nursing school. She was known by family and many friends as “C.R.” She met the love of her life, Duane Stutzman, in 1961, and they married on Aug. 31, 1963. The pair lived in Florida and New Jersey, before settling in Colorado in 1967.
She was a nurse for many years, and then a longtime full-time mother. After her children were grown, she was a customer service representative at Wells Fargo. She endured countless hours attending her children’s athletic and artistic pursuits, as well as many road trips across the country, and trips to see her children when they were in college out-of-state, or in careers outside of Colorado. That didn’t last long; all of her children came back to Colorado, to her and Duane.
She loved tennis, games, travel, Ruffles potato chips and Simon & Garfunkel. In recent years, she enjoyed her travels to Alaska, Hawaii, Bahamas, Italy, France and China. Mostly, she enjoyed spending time with her family. She is deeply missed by all who loved her, which is everyone who knew her.
Because of COVID-19, the family is not having a public gathering. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, 720 S. Colorado Blvd., #520-N, Denver, CO 80246 in her memory.
