She helped raise many of the kids in our community and cared deeply for the neighborhood. We are praying for your family and for your continued strength. I will never forget her taking me ( Latrice) to vacation bible school at her church and even to church on Sunday with her several times. She will be missed. Avent Family

To the Green family, you have our deepest condolences. We pray that God will strengthen each of you. We will alway's remember Catherine's friendly smile and warm embraces. Both of our parents (the Carney's and the Mapp's) said "Catherine Green's smile and warm embrace is what they remembered when coming to Third Street Bethel. Catherine will truly be missed but always remembered. (James and Gwen Carney)

Praying for the entire Green family. I feel so blessed to have been welcomed into the Green family by being selected to be Little Darryl's Godmother. Mrs Green was an amazing woman, mother, grandmother, cook and especially a loving person. She always exhibited her love for everyone she came in contact with. She was truly on of God's Angels. I thank God I met her and she blessed me with those biscuits!! I was able to be in her company last year, and to see her again after many years really touched my heart. May she rest in peace for she gave her ALL while she was here. Peace and love to you all. Dale Garner and Family

While the heavens sing at your arrival, we all rejoice in the spirit you left us with. Much love and compassion to ALL of the Green family for allowing us to have her be part of our lives, and personally, for allowing me to know her for the last 35 years. Family always. The Moton Family.

Mostly, I will miss our long conversations. She would tell me things she felt I should know. She would say, we need to always write these things down. She had a gift of putting things together that always made a big hit with everyone. Kat would always find in her heart to help someone and lived a profoundly meaningful life. I will miss her. Her sister Fannie.

KAT, as I always called her was 15 years older than me Carol, her youngest Sister. I first remember meeting my sister when I was approximately 13 years of age and was invited to spend the summer with her and her family in Richmond, VA. However, it was not until many, many years later that we reconnected and developed a sisterly bond. Kat's LOVE for Cooking (her food was always savory), Sharing, and Serving others in many capacities will be memorable reflections. It was unanimous that she was the jazziest of the eight girls. I always admired how well she wore clothing. It could be a pair of jeans, sweats, a suit or formal attire, her sense of STYLE was evident throughout her years. I remain grateful for the time we shared. Miss you Sis! Carol

Deepest condolences to the Green family for they have lost an irreplaceable one. She's been a friend and mother to all who knew her and the best neighbor you could ask for. I still look to her door when I leave the house just to see if she's home to check out the latest flower shes planted or the latest bargain from the thrift store or to see how badly James cut the grass.. you will be missed Catherine and may God bless the family..

Mother Green is one of the sweetest Lady I have had the Pleasure of meeting while she was in Portland OR. During the family reunion.

Love the Gregory Blue and Family Clover, SC

My deepest condolences to the Green family. Ms. Green was truly a God send to so many. I met Ms. Green over 30 years ago, when I lived in the Richmond area and enjoyed many Sunday dinners at her house and many conversations. Even after I moved away, we still kept in touch. Any time I was in her area or just passing through, she welcomed me and my family. I am so happy that my daughters got the opportunity to be around such a beautiful person. They never forgot her, as I never will. Take your rest queen. You will truly be missed. Gail Inabinett & Family

To the family,we were saddened to hear about the passing of Ms. Green. We loved Ms. Green like a mother and grandmother. When we moved to Va. and decided to attend and join Third Street Bethel she was the first person to welcome us and treated us just like family. This sweet dear lady will truly be missed. The joy that she brought to our lives will not be forgotten. Rest In Peace. Carlos, Tangela & Tayler Gainer

What a beautiful lady in so many ways. She had an essence about her that could quiet a fidgety child, calm a troubled heart, have you bent in laughter with just a look. Her warm and caring nature has helped many through trying times and she will be greatly missed. To the Family, Thank you for sharing her. Elaine Satchell

When I was making final arrangements for my daughter's wedding, our wedding planner disappeared, which left us in a quandary. I thought and thought, who could help us on such short notice with this most cherished occasion for my daughter. KAT, my sister KAT! Kat not only came through with her excellent calm and expert assistance, but she also brought reinforcement assistance, of another Rhonda, our niece Rhonda Brown Green. Kat saved the day and the ceremony went off as smooth as silk. Secondly, I will miss going shopping to the salvage barn and thrift stores. We had so much fun! The clothing we purchased allowed us to dress for a picture on the cover of Vogue Magazine (if given the opportunity)! I miss you Kat! Rest in Peace My Beloved Sister. Janet

Momma Green was the epitome of a classy lady. I miss hearing her ask how is mommas baby doing. My face would light up when I would see her ushering at church. My prayers to all who knew and loved her, she will be greatly missed.

To the Green Family, Miss. Green as I called her was not just a church member, but apart of my family. When I first moved to Richmond we were neighbors as we are now. She would check my children if acting up in church on Sunday mornings and feed them cookies when they would ride their bikes to her house. The news of her passing has affected my family greatly. My deepest sympathy to the Green family and know that Miss. Green was loved and will be missed.May God continue to bless you during this difficult time. Sharon and Lauren Johnson, Malinda and Tiffany Demps and John Barnes

My deepest sympathy to the Green family, Blessing peace and love to all. God needed someone to usher his saints, into God's kingdom, so he chose the one- the one who knows how to do it best - and that one was you. That one was you Catherine. Trecinda Barnes (Trudy)

There will never be another Catherine Green. She was my "Mother" in Richmond. She was first member of Bethel I met. As a fellow South Carolinian, she welcomed me into her home as one of her daughters and never looked back. Remembering many Sunday meals, great talks,laugher and trips to South Carolina. I love you Catherine and will miss you tremendously. Rest in Heavenly Peace, my dear friend. Pam Thompson and Chelsea Carter

Such a sweet and loving lady. I met Ms. Green for the first time 40 years ago over Thanksgiving dinner at her home. She welcomed me into her home as if I were one of her children and has treated me like family ever since. A true pillar in her family, she validated everything that I ever knew and learned about what family should be. She will be missed... With heavy heart, Rich Smith.

I extend my deepest sympathies to Mrs. Green's family. She must have been an incredibly warm Christian woman to have a wonderful son like Daryl who I had the pleasure to know at Tuckahoe Middle School. I'm sure all her children and family and friends will keep her memory alive. God bless each and every one of you. Brenda Hinson Pemberton
