Catalina Short Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Catalina Short (Saratoga, California), born in Los Gatos, California, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Catalina left this world on December 29, 2024 at the age of 19, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Catalina may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.
She is survived by: her parents, Brian Short and Cathie Short (Watson); her sisters, Celeste and Noel; her grandparents, Charley and Joan Watson; and her godparents, Alan Watson and April Wallace. She is also survived by her seven aunts, four uncles, 23 cousins, a large extended family and all of her friends.
