“Throughout her tenure, she demonstrated exemplary leadership, fostering collaboration and championing causes that uplifted the lives of people and furry companions alike,” said Mayor Cory Moss. “An avid animal lover, Cathy spearheaded efforts to establish the first no-kill animal rescue in the San Gabriel Valley.” That rescue, Priceless Pets, whose founder and CEO Lisa Price formed a friendship with Marcucci, paid tribute to her saying: “Cathy, a beacon of love and compassion, left an indelible mark on our hearts and the world around her. Cathy’s journey was one of remarkable courage and boundless love. … Cathy’s unwavering dedication to animal welfare extended far beyond words; it was woven into the fabric of her being.” m Memorial donations are requested to Priceless Pets: pricelesspetrescue.org/cathy-marcucci
