Catherine A. Billman

Catherine A. Billman, age 70 of Batesville, died Monday, April 13, 2020 at her home. Born July 11, 1949 in Batesville, she is the daughter of Johanna (Nee: Nobbe) and Wilbert Billman. She worked 34 years as an import/export manager for the South Carolina State Port Authority and after moving back to Batesville, 11 years in housekeeping at the YMCA. A member of St. Anthony’s Church, she had been serving as sacristant for the last five years.

Cathy didn’t slow down after retiring. In addition to taking care of her mother, she volunteered her time and talents throughout community. She was an avid reader, with her family estimating her collection of books numbering well over a thousand. Cathy also took great pride in keeping her home looking its best and thoroughly enjoyed working in her yard. Something you may not have known about her, she was a huge NASCAR fan.

Cathy is survived by her sister Jeanette (Michael Sr.) Cuellar of Harrison, Ohio; nephews Michael Cuellar Jr. of San Marcos, California, Jonathan Cuellar of Covington, Kentucky; great niece Emma Cuellar and great nephew Ethan Cuellar. She is preceded in death by her parents.
