She was raised in Collinsville and attended Collinsville Schools, graduating from Collinsville High School. She had 2 sons , Geoffrey and Jeremy Hughes that were the light of her life. She married the love of her life, Todd Hossle in 1993. They spent 24 wonderful years of marriage together. Cathy was a joyful and faithful woman her entire life. She was raised in the Shady Grove Congregational Methodist Church and attended Hagerman Baptist Church for many years until finding her church home at A Christian Fellowship Church for the last 12 years. Her and Todd took many cruises together, as often as 1 a year for the last 10 years. Her last cruise she was able to go on was with all of her siblings and their spouses and it was perfect. In 2008, Cathy had a major boating accident, which prompted her doctor to tell her she would never walk again. She responded to the doctor by telling him, "Sir, you don't know me and you don't know my Great Physician!" 3 days later she was walking with the assistance of parallel bars and 6 weeks later she was walking out of the hospital on her own. Cathy always loved helping people. She had gotten her CNA and her CMA nursing certificates and decided she loved working with geriatric patients, working at Oakland Manor in Oakland, Iowa and Gunter Nursing Home in Gunter, Texas. She spent 5 years caring for her ailing mother in law until her passing. Nanna, as she was known by her grandchildren, loved her family and she loved her grandchildren especially. She was a tremendously loving, caring, sweet and thoughtful person to everyone who had the blessing of knowing her. She will be greatly missed. Cathy is survived by her husband, Todd Frederick Hossle of Sherman; 2 sons: Geoffrey Hughes of Whitesboro and Jeremy Hughes and wife Leslie of Sherman; 3 brothers: Allen Woody and wife Helen of Marietta, OK, Donnie Woody and wife Joanne of Lakewood, CO, and Randy Woody and wife Bonnie of Collinsville; sister, Pam Phillips and husband Tony of Sherman; 3 grandchildren: Jace and Jeremiah Hughes and Makayla Besherse; many nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, cousins and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, LL and Tassie Woody. Memorials may be made in Cathy's name to Alpha 1 Deficiency Foundation at Alpha1.org.
