obit for Catharine Mayes

Catharine Mayes, of Covington, passed away Monday, May 4, 2020, at the age 77. Of the Baptist faith, Mrs. Mayes was the best version of herself when surrounded by her loved ones. Ever-present and always on display was her devotion to family, and both her grandson, Christopher, and great-grandson, Austin, held a special place in her heart. Mrs. Mayes' interests were many but among her favorites were golfing and swimming. She was preceded in death by her first husband, Autry Mayes; son, Donald Evans Mayes; and parents, Clarence and Lizzie May (Hall) Carter.

 

Mrs. Mayes will be lovingly and deeply missed by her husband, Larry Harper; daughter and son-in-law, Kathy and Johnny McCollum; grandson, Christopher Mayes; great-grandson, Austin Mayes; as sisters, Nancy Gail Knight, Sherry Carter; brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Randall and Christine Harper, Sherry Smith; Mike and Pam Harper.

 

A Private Graveside Service for Mrs. Mayes will be held Thursday, May 7, 2020, 2:00 P.M., at Porterdale Baptist Cemetery, Highway 81, in Porterdale, with Pastor Darrell Allen officiating.

 

Due to the current COVID-19, and coronavirus pandemic recommendations, the family regrets that the services must be private.
