Caterina Stagnoli

Born in Brescia, Italy Caterina Stagnoli a member  of our Eureka Lodge for 36 years passed away in August. Her strength amazed all who knew her, surviving as a child with her family during WW II and later immigrating in 1966 to the United States with her husband Francesco and their two children. Landing in Humboldt County Caterina, Francesco, Maurizio, and Giuliana made their home in Arcata, California. She adapted quickly to life in Humboldt County and made many friends. Her delicious cooking, beautiful flower-filled garden, and always ready plate of cookies and coffee for visitors to her home were her hallmarks. Caterina is now in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior and reunited with her love Francesco. She is survived by and will be deeply missed by everyone who knew her, especially her daughter Giuliana, son Maurizio, several grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
