July 27, 2020
Catherine M. Connors of Cranston, age 62, died unexpectedly on July 27, 2020. Catherine is survived by her Son Thomas F. Connors, Jr and his wife Ashley A. Brown, her sister Ellen Falvey of Cranston, and her brother John Falvey of Pawtucket. She was the daughter of the late Helen Louise Falvey and Daniel Falvey of Warwick, and sister to the late Daniel Falvey of Florida and Edith Falvey of New Jersey. Catherine, known by friends and family as “Kay” or “Kay Kay” was born on July 28, 1958 in Illinois. She eventually moved to Rhode Island and she graduated from University of Rhode Island with a bachelor’s degree in political science. Kay worked as a waitress for many years before entering politics in the early 90’s, where she worked as a successful campaign manager and fundraiser for a prominent elected official who remains in office to this day. Kay believed wholeheartedly in the goodness of people and her own kindness, generosity of spirit, and selfless love for others was evident to all who knew her. In both the Connors and Falvey tradition, she welcomed many different people from all walks of life into her extended family and she loved and cherished her relationships with one and all. Members of her extended family who were always in her thoughts and in her heart include Sean D. Connors, his wife Erica and their children, Kelly Connors and her son, the Boylan’s, her daughter in law Ashley and her family the Browns, and perhaps most of all her grand-dog Marley who would come running if you told him he was going to see his Nana. She will be loved and deeply missed by all who knew her. A celebration of life will be held by her family.
