Antonelli Crombie was born in Lowell, MA on December 27, 1953, a beloved daughter of Henry A. and Lorraine (Regan) Antonelli of Hudson, NH, formerly of Lowell, MA. Cathy attended Lowell Schools and was a graduate of the Sacred Heart Grammar School and Lowell High School, class of 1971, where she was a Captain of the Girl Officers. Cathy grew up in the Sacred Heart Parish and was a Lead Twirler in the Sacred Heart Band. Upon graduation, Cathy became employed as a Flight Attendant with TWA Airlines.

Cathy and Nick were world travelers and Cathy insisted on a trip to Buenos Aires to learn the Tango. Her favorite places were London, Paris, and Rome. However, she was most happy spending time at our beach house at Moody Beach in Maine, walking our two Yorkies, Lily Ann and Petunia Marie, or simply sitting out on the deck listening to Barbra Streisand and watching the moon rise over the ocean. In addition to her husband Nick and her parents Henry and Lorraine, Cathy is survived by her sister, Sharon L. Gray and her husband James of Hudson, NH; her brother, Henry Antonelli, Jr. of Lowell, MA; her nephew, Jonathan Gray of Hudson, NH and her Godson and nephew, Garrett Lofstrom of Everett.
