Catherine L. Mosher

Snyder's Lake- Catherine L. Mosher, Snyder's Lake, NY, passed away peacefully surrounded by family in her home on September 22, 2020.

She took her last breath where she took her first on July 18, 1937 at the site of her family's summer camp "Shady Knoll" on Snyder's Lake. She and her beloved husband, Tom, spent each summer there with their children before deciding to call Snyder's Lake home year-round. In August 1993, they rebuilt, creating a new place for past and future generations to share in their Heaven on Earth.

Cathy was the daughter of the late Charles and Nell Brady McDermott. She was raised in Albany and was a graduate of Philip Schuyler High School. Cathy is survived by 4 sons and 2 daughters. Thomas A. Mosher Jr., Lori (Tom) Tapper, Joseph (Rebecca) Mosher, Pamela Hogan, John (Kerry) Mosher, Michael (Ellen) Mosher. She is also survived by her precious grandchildren: Thomas A. Mosher III, Ryan (Courtney) Tapper, Cynthia (Champ) Tapper-Peralta, David (Tia), Elizabeth, Jacob, and Jennifer Mosher, Olivia and Sophia Hogan, Meghan and Daniel Mosher, and Christian, Matthew and Kateri Mosher. And the ones who gave her the role of a lifetime as Gigi: Julian Tapper, Ariana and Giana Catherine Mosher, and Tallulah Tapper-Peralta.

Cathy was predeceased by the love of her life, Thomas A. Mosher, who she loved "a bushel and a peck." She was also predeceased by four sisters: Marion Schaffer, Ann McDermott, Doris Cushman, Janet O'Donnell Schultz, and seven brothers: Charles, John, James, Robert, Edward, Richard, and Thomas McDermott.

Cathy was the Secretary at the Church of St. Vincent de Paul in Albany, NY for 26 years, retiring in 2002. She was a member of the Albany Columbiettes Council #173, Sunset Afternooners Bowling League, and the Senior Bowling League in Wynantskill. She was also a charter member of the former Sandpipers Golf League. Cathy enjoyed going to the many activities of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Her final summer on Snyder's Lake was spent with the people she loves the most, reminiscing on Shady Knoll and creating new memories that her family will carry with them forever.

Her love and faith carried her through to her final days and she will forever be in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
