Cathy L. Eckstein
Cathy L. Eckstein, 47, of Greenville, went home to be with the Lord on
Saturday, August 17, 2013. Cathy was born on April 20, 1966 to
William G. Tipton and Carolyn S. Tipton of Greenville.
In addition to her parents, Cathy is survived by her husband, Dennis;
three children, Erica & Peter Jones of Wichita, Kansas, Brandon C.
Eckstein of Lima, Ohio and Caitlyn Eckstein of Greenville; a
granddaughter, Madelyn Jones; and a sister, Beth and Lonnie Beisner of
Arcanum.
Cathy worked as an optician at Spectacle Shoppe in Greenville, was a
teacher and music director at Greenville Baptist Academy, and a
consultant with Mary Kay for over 10 years. She enjoyed
helping people through all her occupations and looked for ways to
enrich the lives of people. She and her husband attended Castine
Church of the Brethren and were active in ministry there.
Cathy enjoyed playing the piano. She was a lover of life and was
always the life of a party. Cathy had an infectious smile and
laugh, and never met a stranger. She looked out for the interest
of others and always had time for you if you were having a bad
day. Her love for others came from her own relationship with
Christ and her deep faith. Cathy was a devoted wife, mother and
grandmother, and the time she spent with family and friends was
precious to her.
A Celebration of Life service will be held on Thursday, August 22, 2013
at 10:00 AM at Castine Church of the Brethren with Rev. Gary Cloyd
officiating. The family will visit with friends on Wednesday,
August 21st from 2 – 8 PM also at the church. The family requests
memorial contributions be made to Darke County Cancer Society in honor
of Cathy.
Condolences may be sent to the family at www.braundpope.com. Services entrusted to
Braund Pope Funeral Home in New Madison.
