In 2017, she was the recipient of the Columbus Landmarks Dixie Sayre Miller Patron Award due to her passion for sharing her knowledge of art and history. As co-founder of the Friends of Freedom Society, Cathy was instrumental in raising awareness of Underground Railroad sites and sharing stories of those seeking freedom.
