Mary Christine (Legg) Catt, 98, of Flat Rock, IL, went to be with her Lord and Savior on August 23, 2024, at her home. She was born on Christmas Day, December 25, 1925, at her grandfather's home west of Oak Ridge Church near Port Jackson, IL. Named Mary Christine because it was the closest her parents could come to "Merry Christmas," she was a true Christmas gift to her parents, Pearl (Enola) Rich & Everett "Ab" Legg. Christine lost her mother at the tender age of five during childbirth. Her mother's final wish was for Ab to keep the children together, and that he did. Growing up as a farm girl, Christine helped with the wood cutting, crops, and even the detested task of raising tobacco. The values of family, hard work, and responsibility would be mainstays throughout Christine's life.
On June 1, 1946, she married the love of her life, Donald Catt, and together they recently celebrated 78 years of marriage. Chris and Don built the house that they would make a home for the rest
