Catherine was born December 10, 1927 to Paul Calvin Kellar and Ida Viola (Geick) Kellar in Chriesman, TX. Catherine never met a stranger and all who met her felt comfortable in her presence. Catherine grew up in Chriesman and attended Caldwell High School. She and her husband Ray moved the family to Oklahoma City in 1958. Catherine was a faithful school volunteer and PTA member during her daughter's school years. Her family was her priority but she also worked as a secretary and office manager for many years for Pyramid Life Insurance Company and later for Globe Life in Oklahoma City. Catherine much preferred the outdoors and gardening over household chores. She loved to read cook books and was an excellent cook of good Southern dishes. She and Ray spent many hours at their small farm outside Caldwell and greatly enjoyed their garden throughout their retirement years. In later years she cared for her husband Ray until he passed in 2006. Catherine was 20-year breast cancer survivor. She will be remembered for her great style, generous heart, driving a T-Bird, and the fragrance of Estee Lauder Youth Dew. She was a dedicated wife, mother, sister, caretaker, and much more. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends. Catherine is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Judy and John Lundquist; granddaughter Katherine Lundquist and her husband Justin Case along with their son, Everett Case; brothers and sisters-in-law, Gilley and Nancy Kellar, Julius and Pat Kellar, and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, husband Ray Massey, sister Ellen Wilhelm and brother John Charles Kellar. In Lieu of flowers, the family's wish is for donations to be made to the Susan G.
