Cathy was one of my favourite regulars at work. I work at the Starbucks at St.Vital mall and she would always come see me before she started work. She brought her own mermaid tumbler and always had a decaf Sumatra pour over coffee until they discontinued it and she started ordering something else. I would always have her decaf pour over ready to go before she arrived to the store so she wouldn’t have to wait so long for it. (Usually takes 4 mins to brew). One of my favourite memories was two winters ago when her car got stuck in the mall parking lots from all of the snow. I remember seeing this small car get stuck (Starbucks has windows that faced the parking lot so I could clearly see) and to my surprise, it was Cathy who got out of the car! She then came to my store and wasn’t sure what to do. I put on my winter jacket, came outside, and actually pushed her car out of the pile of snow. We both laughed about it after, and I gave her a complimentary coffee for her troubles. I will deeply miss Cathy. She had such an amazing spirit about her and was always cheerful. Anytime I see decaf Sumatra, Cathy is always the first to come to my mind. I bet you she is enjoying a nice hot cup of decaf Sumatra right now. Her Starbucks family will deeply miss her.
