Congratulations to our 2020 Women of the Year, Cathy Jacoby Boomer.

Cathy is honored to be selected as the Gamma Phi Beta Woman of the Year representative! She is a proud member of Sigma Chapter, and graduated from the University of Kansas in 1983. She owns Signature Funerals, offering families another choice for their funeral care. Cathy married a K- Stater and they have four children, one daughter-in-law and two grandgirls who that live all across the country.

Cathy loved living in the Gamma Phi house, and meeting women from all across the state, many who she stays in contact with today. Being involved with the local alumnae chapter has brought back many memories about their rituals and traditions. Cathy is amazed at the Gamma Phi KC alumnae efforts to support GPhi chapters across Kansas and Missouri! Cathy is proud to be a Gamma Phi Beta and love the friendships that came out of her experience!

Favorite Sorority Memory:
So so many, but my freshman year, all ages of Gamma Phi’s tried to go to the KU/Nebraska game in Lincoln, but we got snowed in Hamburg, Iowa about noon and had to spend the night. The townspeople started calling their sons and directing them all to the “restaurant” that we were hanging out!
