Catherine Frances Plummer (nee Fickling), resident of Masonic Villages, Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania passed away on March 14, 2025 at the age of 90. She was born August 30, 1934 in Columbia, South Carolina to the late Thomas N. and Everdell (Jowers) Fickling.

Catherine's artistic, poetic and musical abilities were well known by her family, and friends who were regular recipients of her hand crafted ornaments, poems and cards.  These abilities were put to use for many years while teaching Sunday School, composing news letters, creating church banners, and singing in the choir, touching all with her talents and gifts.  Her Christmas Cookies were legendary!

While raising 4 children, Catherine always found time to volunteer with several organizations including; Jaycees, Girl Scouts, Church Council, and Lutheran Church Women.  She used her leadership and creative skills to further the success of these public-spirited organizations.

Catherine will be lovingly missed by daughters Peggi Norman (Wayne), Pat Berg (Michael) , Maribeth Makela (Michael) and daughter-in-law Nellie Plummer; grand-children Melissa Norman, Sarah Berg, Daniel and Matthew Makela, brother Thomas Fickling II, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.
