Don & Cathy Stauffer at Zito's Pizza
Don & Cathy Stauffer at Zito's Pizza

Coupon winner Cathy Stauffer and her husband, Don, may have met and married in Nebraska, but the couple has enjoyed being members of the City of Orange for almost 20 years.

They spent their early years in Orange becoming familiar with the community and now enjoy walking the area and checking out the many new businesses in Old Towne Orange.  Fond of the Plaza’s antiques shops, Cathy collects Sun-themed items.  Being an avid reader, you can often find Don at the Orange Public Library.

Before she and Don retired, Cathy had a long career in photography, which she left when 60 Minute Photo in Orange closed in the early 2000s.  “Now I just take photos of my grandchildren,” says Cathy with a smile.

Don worked for many years in construction as a drywall contractor.  Following his retirement, they decided to move to the Hart Park neighborhood just south of the Plaza.

The Stauffers, who will celebrate 62 years of marriage this June, have grandchildren and great-grandchildren they travel to visit whenever they get a chance.

A cheese lover, Cathy chose to redeem her coupon at Zito’s Pizza, where she and Don plan to share their winnings with friends and family.
