It's clear Catherine's bubbly and charismatic personality beamed through, and her own philosophy that “in life, there is nothing better than laughing, especially a laugh when you most need it" is a true testament to how she lived her own life.
Her roles also included an acclaimed comeback in Schitt’s Creek as the character “Moira Rose”, eventually resulting in her winning her second Emmy in 2020.
