After returning to Bay City she worked for several years before marrying Edwin Carl Anderson. They settled in Matagorda where they raised their two children. Catherine was dedicated to the Matagorda United Methodist Church where she was the organist for many years.

After she and Carl became empty nesters, they enjoyed taking road trips to Guadalajara, Colorado, Branson, Salado and many other destinations. Most of all she will be remembered as a wonderful and loving mother.

Anderson; Grandson, Harry Timothy Moore, Jr.; great-granddaughter, Madeline Moore and cousin Charles Bryan Baker and family.

Servant of God, Well done!

Thy glorious warfares past.

The battles fought, the race is won,

and thou art crowned at last.
