Catherine Tierney died on December 2 after an heroic health battle. She was born in Tuckahoe/raised in Eastchester and attended ICS and St Clare Academy before leaving home for 25 years with the Daughters of St Paul.

She is survived by two of the four siblings of Edward and Cecelia Tierney: Maureen Melton of Annandale, VA, and Edward Tierney (Susan) of Seattle and their daughter, Lisa Lee (Mark), and grandson Jake; cousins Bernard Collins (Diane) of Long Island, and Catherine Gorman of Warminster, PA.
