Catrice Lynette Loyal was born November 29, 1973 in Cincinnati, Ohio to Charles E. Toran and Margaret A. Culpepper. She moved to Atlanta, Georgia with her family while still a young child. Catrice graduated from Benjamin E. Mays High School in the Spring of 1992. Following her graduation, she attended Georgia Southern University. For the past 11 years, Catrice has held the position of Work Scanner Operator with PNC Bank.
Catrice entered holy matrimony with Silvester Loyal sixteen years ago on March 1 st , 2004. They resided in Clayton County, Georgia where they raised two beautiful daughters as well as her five wonderful stepchildren. While living in Forest Park, Georgia, Catrice became known as the community mom. Other parents trusted that their children were well taken care of while in her presence.
Of the many activities Catrice enjoyed, whether it was cooking for her family, traveling or participating in game nights, the ones based around her family were the most precious to her. Catrice would make sure everyone was well fed during the holiday seasons, birthday parties or just a lazy day around the house. Each year Catrice ensured her family had fabulous vacations during spring break and she made them the best times for everyone on family cruises. Catrice also shared many laughs with those who enjoyed her sharp sense of humor. Her family and friends will testify to her compassion and unconditional love for her family.
Catrice will be survived by her husband: Silvester Loyal Sr.; daughters: Chazmyn and Anaiya Loyal; mother: Margaret Culpepper; father: Charles Toran; stepchildren: Silvester Loyal Jr, Andrew Durr, Tavious Parks, DeAngelo Durr (YP) (gone but not forgotten) and Audrey Anna Loyal; and siblings: Tonia Brown and Carl Culpepper Jr. She will also be sorely missed by a host of other loving cousins, nieces, nephews, uncles, aunts and friends.
