She was the reason he left his lifes work behind. I am certain he never once regretted his decision.
RIP Lady Cathy Ferguson

RIP
Really sad news.
terrible news, rest in peace Lady Cathy. Really worried about Sir Alex now.Oh no... I know that for a lot of old couples, when their spouse passes, they're not far behind either due to emotional sadness. But I hope Sir Alex lives as long a life ahead of him.
But I hope Sir Alex lives as long a life ahead of him.Horrible news. Hope the family has the strength to get through this
Sad News. Behind every great man is an even greater woman.
RIP.
RIP.
Sad sad news, this lady had an enormous role to play in the clubs history, imagine the support she gave SAF over the years . . .
That’s terrible news. RIP
Hope the family gets the privacy and support they need.
RIP.
This was my first thought but my grandmother lost the love of her life (65+ years together) at a similar age and was devastated but almost 20 years later is still going strong. How Sir Alex's family and the community rallies to support him will be important.
So sad. Rip Cathy. Feel for the great man, hope he's okay too.
Awe that’s so sad

R.I.P and what a lovely couple.
I hope that Fergie isn’t too lonely and still goes on to have happiness in his life.

Very sad condolences to the family
Oh this is so sad.
Rest in peace Cathy, and thank you for all the joy you've enabled us to have.

One of his characteristics that will hopefully help him through the difficult time is that he still enjoys socialising and being part of it all. He went out on a jolly to Barcelona earlier this year with buddies and hasn’t really stopped since he retired. He enjoys being out with the boys even at 80.
If he’d turned more reclusive since retirement, then I would be worrying for him.
Condolence to the great man and the lady's family.
As good as SAF was/ is, a large part of that was what we never seen; and much of that was this fantastic woman. She is much more important to Manchester United then most people realize IMO.

Very sad to hear. Hope the great man and his family stay strong. A minute silence at OT tomorrow to let sir Alex know we’re all with him.
This really hit me. I just think of how much impact that woman had indirectly on our lives. I really hope Sir Alex finds the strength in his family and loved ones. R.I.P Lady Cathy.
Very sad news. She was his rock. RIP
May she rest in peace. We probably owe her more than we could possibly imagine. Thoughts and prayers with Sir Alex and his family.
How incredibly sad.
RIP
RIP
I was just watching the Sir Alex documentary on Amazon this afternoon and have seen this news.
I really feel for him, you can tell how much he adored her and the regret he has for not having been there more to help with the family.
RIP Cathy.

RIP. Thanks for all the sacrifices you did on United's behalf
Sad news, I'm sure she has had a bigger role in his success than we'll ever know. He clearly loved her very much and made of point of talking how he retired so they could spend time with each other finally. I'm glad they got to do that for years but they deserved even more time together.
Rest in peace Lady Cathy. Feel sorry for Sir Alex, I wish him strength and good health.
RIP
RIP Lady Ferguson. A very sad time for all her family. She’s been a massive part of the Man Utd history. As other have said already, I don’t think that Sir Alex would have achieved so much without her support. My condolences to their family.
