Milton Cato

Milton Cato passed away in his sleep early Wednesday morning, November 2, 2016, following a short illness at his sister's home in Hoboken, Ga.

Milton loved the outdoors and tinkered with fixing lawn mowers and his automobiles and such. He was an avid movie fan and enjoyed Burt Reynolds in “Smokey and the Bandit” and “Hooper” among many others. He so enjoyed watching westerns and action movies on tv. In his younger days while living with his Father, he would ride his bicycle from Waycross to Brunswick and often stop in to see his Mother along the way in Nahunta. He had a wonderful smile and will be sorely missed. For some years now Milton has lived with his brother, Heyward until he had gotten down sick and has stayed with his sister, Margaret these past few weeks under Hospice care.
