I had the absolute honour of recording my 100th episode with Cath Troy – and I’ll never forget it. At 101 years old, she was still sharp as a tack, full of cheek, and generous with her stories. Cath passed away yesterday at the age of 101.
If you’ve never heard her stories, this is the time. She grew up in Balmain, watched the Harbour Bridge being built, danced through the war years, fell in love with her beloved Cess, and told stories with the kind of sparkle that only comes from living a very full life.
Rest in Peace, Cath - and thank you for giving us your story.
