The life of Catherine Sylvester began on February 17, 1926 to Louis and Laura Andrews, the fourth of five children in Mobile, Alabama. She was a member of Friendship Baptist Church of Mobile for many years. She moved to Georgia five years ago to live with family because of her failing health. She has been a resident at Avalon Rehab and Nursing Center for the past three years. Early on Friday morning, October 29, 2010, the Lord sent his angels down to take her home. She leaves to cherish her memories: six children; Vera (Leroy) Young of Rochester, NY, Dorothy (Freddie) Riley, Virgil Leggett, David Leggett, and Margaret Oliver all of Mobile, AL, and Cathy (Ray) Swain of Newnan, GA, one sister; Lettie May Risper of Mobile, AL, seventeen grandchildren, forty-four great grandchildren, twelve great-great grandchildren, and a host of other relatives and friends.
