The circumstances surrounding Cathy's death were tragic and shocking to the community. On October 8, 2018, the Sanford Police Department was called to conduct a well-being check at Cathy's home on Twin Coach Court. This was prompted by her absence from work and concerns raised by her coworkers, who were aware of the marital problems she had been experiencing with her husband, Edward Kramarcik. Upon arrival, the police discovered the bodies of Cathy and Edward, both of whom had been fatally shot. The initial investigation suggested that the incident was a murder-suicide, with Edward being the primary suspect.
Further details revealed that Cathy had confided in her coworkers about the difficulties in her marriage, and Edward was reportedly battling cancer at the time. The police investigation confirmed that Edward had shot Cathy before taking his own life. The couple's neighbors also noted that their cars had not moved for several days, which added to the suspicion that something was amiss. The Sanford Police Department continued to investigate the case, but no additional suspects or arrests were made, as the evidence pointed conclusively to a murder-suicide scenario.

Friends, family, and coworkers mourned the loss of Cathy, remembering her as a dedicated professional and a loving family member. The case was closed with the conclusion that Edward's actions were driven by the couple's personal struggles and his health issues.
