- Catherine R. Vosters, Town of Vandenbroek, age 94, died Thursday, March 17, 2016 at the St. Paul Home. She was born in Freedom on August 14, 1921 to the late Peter and Ella (Garvey) Green. Catherine married Raymond Vosters on November 20, 1941 at St. Nicholas Parish in Freedom. Catherine and Ray started their life's journey together farming and eventually raising seven children. She had a lifelong love of music and was a very talented singer and harmonizer. In her younger years, you could hear Catherine and her sister, Gladys, on the radio. She was a voracious reader and kept herself current with politics and world events. She was a strong and patient matriarch who treasured and held her family together. She loved nothing better than spending time with her family and was a lifelong social butterfly, a people person. She had a wonderful smile and sense of humor. She will be missed by all who knew her, and we her children will love her and miss her every day of our lives. We take comfort that she is in Heaven with Dad.
