Cathleen Anne Belhumer, 50, of Rochester, Minnesota, passed away in her home on Monday, November 19 after a six month battle with stage four brain cancer.
Cathy was born on June 24, 1968 in Dearborn, Michigan. Her parents, Jacob and Maxine Uitti, and older sister, Sue, helped raise her into the compassionate, hardworking, and witty woman everyone came to know and love. Competitive throughout her childhood on gymnastic teams, she graduated from Kennedy High School in Taylor, Michigan in 1986.
Her huge heart led her to receive a Bachelors of Nursing degree at Northern Michigan University in 1991. While at school she met her husband, Tony Belhumer. Together they moved to Rochester, Minnesota where they had their three kids, Sam (25), Jacob (22), and Sophie (17). She was a nurse at the Mayo Clinic for 28 years.
Cathy had three passions: knitting, spending time with her family, and caring for others as a nurse.
Her memory is carried on by her husband, Tony; children, Sam, Jacob, and Sophie; her sister, Sue (Mike) Tiihonen; sister in laws, Mary Beth (Jim) Graham, Judy (Vince) Conway, and Shirley (Mark) Sumter; brother in law, Ed (Nikki) Belhumer; many nieces and nephews; and her lifelong friend, Tammara Patterson.
She will be joining her mother, Maxine; her father, Jacob; and her big brother, James, in heaven.
A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 24 in the River Park Chapel at Macken Funeral Home in Rochester, Minnesota with Rev. Thomas Loomis officiating. Visitation will be from 12:00 p.m. until the time of the service on Saturday.
