Villani Education Fund

Donation protected
On January 18 the world got a little less bright and heaven got a new star.  Cathy Villani beloved mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt and friend left us all too soon due to Covid complications.

Anyone who knew Cathy was just lucky enough, as you were in the presence of an earth angel.  Her infectious smile, kind heart, unending generosity, patience and grace to give everyone her time, regardless of how little she had left, never went unnoticed.  

Education was one of Cathy's passions.  They say everything we need to know we learn in kindergarten. I say everything we need to know was taught in Mrs. Villani's pre K classroom.  She touched the lives of so many and truly left a lasting impact on all who knew her.  Cathy was an all star teacher and always went above and beyond expectations. Her "littles" meant the world to her.

Cathy leaves behind her husband Mark and three beautiful sons.  Lifelong friends of Cathy started a fund for her sons and their education after the outpouring of support and love following her passing.  So many wanted to find a way to channel their grief and give back to one of the most generous and graceful teachers and friends they have ever met.  It is our hope that we can come together and support the Villani's in their educational endeavors.  

We thank you for your support and ask you to spread love, joy, kindness and wisdom the way Mrs. Villani did!
