Aaron Cathcart
My acquaintance with Aaron spans several years, and I can confidently say he was a trailblazer in the world of amateur radio. I still recall the day he unveiled his truck, a marvel of innovation and ingenuity. His passing is a profound loss, as he was a remarkable individual. His absence will be deeply felt. May he rest in peace.
Aaron Steven Cathcart, 51, of Princeton, IL, was born June 26, 1972 at St. Catherine's Hospital in McCook, NE to Steve Vale Cathcart and Beverly (Delai) Cathcart. After a brief illness, he passed away on June 5, 2024 at CGH Hospital in Sterling, IL.
Aaron joined his father in operating Cathcart Photography in 1996 in Estes Park, CO. They were award-winning photographers who provided lasting memories to their brides and grooms and shot thousands of weddings over the years. Aaron expanded his talents to include family groups and nature photography. His photos were used in various media platforms, including Dateline and The Weather Channel, among others. One of his photographs of an elk, taken in Rocky Mountain National Park, was used on a US postage stamp.
Cremation rights have been accorded. A Celebration of Life will be held at City County Park in Princeton, Ill on July 13, 2024 from 3:00-5:00 p.m.
