She was the daughter of the late Henry Michael and Ida Lillian (Jorgenson) Rochford. She held a BA and a BSc from Marianopolis College and St. Joseph’s Teaching College, Montréal. She served in the Air Force Reserves as an administrative officer, reaching the rank of Flight Lieutenant. She was the executive director of the Arthritis Society from 1980 until her retirement. In her retirement, she loved gardening, sewing, crafting, and was an avid cook.

Cathy will be missed by her sister, Karen Wilson (John); her children, Michael Lesiak, Christine Lesiak (Ian Walker), and Llewellyn Brewer; her grandchildren, Alexander and Adrian MacKenzie; her dear friend, Dawn Crawford (Steven); and nieces, extended family, friends, and neighbours.
