McLean, Catherine Mary (nee Sutherland)

March 15, 1950 – August 26, 2017

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Cathy on August 26, 2017. Cathy was born March 15, 1950 in Montreal, Quebec. She is predeceased by her adoptive parents, Jean and Angus Sutherland and her brother David Sutherland. Cathy is also predeceased by her birth mother, Phyllis Mayhew, whom she was thrilled to have found in 2007 and had a chance to share history and many family stories.
Cathy is survived by her daughter, Laura Johnson, brothers Bruce and Ian Sutherland, granddaughters, Hailey Johnson, Kira Brown and Ayva Brown and stepdaughter, Rebecca Johnson (Mike McGill). She is also survived by seven half siblings, Elaine Burke(Ken), Samuel Molyneaux (Marlene), Lorraine Molyneaux, Kenneth Molyneaux (Bonnie), Stacy Molyneaux (Jennifer), Scott Molyneaux (Christine) and Lisa Savard (Marc).
Her interests included travel, cooking, reading and over the past years her time spent as a hospice patient volunteer, most recently in Kamloops, BC where she put down her roots and truly felt at home.
Cathy will be sorely missed by many more family and friends who lived, laughed and loved with her.
Many thanks and hugs go to the amazing Dr. Farren and caring staff at the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice Home. 
A celebration of life for Cathy will be held at Schoening Funeral Service, 513 Seymour Street, Kamloops BC on Saturday September 2, 2017 at 11:00am. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in Cathy’s memory to Kamloops Hospice Society or the Royal Inland Hospital Cancer Clinic.
