Cathie Ann Black Eskew

Cathie Ann Black Eskew of Montrose, Colorado, went to be with the Lord shortly after sunrise on the morning of Thursday, July 24, 2025. She was 82.

Cathie was born in Oakland, California, on September 17, 1942, to Catherine and Lane Black. She married Charles “Joe” Eskew, her husband of 62 years, on March 16, 1963, with whom she had three precious children, eight grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.

Known for her endearing laugh and love of Jesus Christ, Cathie was a true woman-of-the-country, happiest when fishing, on long drives through the countryside, or socializing with and serving others. One of her favorite pastimes was reading the Word of God and witnessing to the grace and righteousness found in Christ.

Cathie is survived by her husband, Joe; her beloved sons, Lane and John Eskew; her loving daughter, Elizabeth Wisdom Rogers; seven of her precious grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. She has gone to join her late grandson, Tyler John Eskew; her younger brother, Philip Lane Black; as well as her late parents, among many other brothers and sisters in Christ, in Heaven.

A memorial service for Cathie will be held at Grace Community Church on Saturday, September 27, at 10 a.m. Donations in her name can be made to Grace Community Church.
