PrintCathy JoAnn Pendergrass, 61, of Warrenton, VA passed away peacefully on December 28, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. Raised in the rolling hills of Kentucky, Cathy spent her life cultivating beauty, capturing memories, and creating joy in the lives of everyone she met.
Her passion for working horses and enjoying a ranching lifestyle were shared with family and friends. With a camera in hand, she had an uncanny ability to capture life's precious moments, preserving them for generations to come. Many of her incredible images were featured on covers of western and livestock publications across the country.
Cathy's love for gardening was evident in her vibrant flowers and flourishing plants, which was reflected in her nurturing spirit. She used this hobby to instill work ethic and an enjoyment of nature in her grandchildren. Her adventurous soul led her to explore the world through travel, finding wonder and inspiration in every new place she visited.
The light of Cathy's life was her family, especially her beloved husband, Bill, her children, and her grandchildren, who were the center of her heart. She is survived by her husband of 36 years, Bill Pendergrass; her four children, Erica & John Faith, Aaron & Alyssa Faith, Andy & Carla Pendergrass, and Dusty & Emily Pendergrass; and her treasured grandchildren, Layla Pendergrass, Raylee and Landon Faith, Hudson and Etta Pendergrass. She is also survived by her mother, Linda Beck; her siblings, Cindy, James, Robin, and Daniel; and a host of extended family and dear friends. Cathy was preceded in death by her father, James Beck.
Cathy was deeply loved by many for her kindness, humor, and the warmth she brought to all who knew her. Her legacy is one of love, laughter, and a life lived fully.
