May Yard of the Month
Randy and Cathie Lusby have lived in the Settlement for 41 years. Mr. and Mrs. Lusby have two grown children and two grandchildren. Both of their children are married and reside in Old Katy. Their daughter has 2 girls, one has graduated from Katy and is a Junior in college, the other is a Junior at Katy High.
Cathie and Randy are both retired and live in the same house they’ve lived in since moving here. Their dog, Baxter, shares the house with them (actually, he thinks it’s his house). He’s pretty spoiled, and you might see them in their silver SUV driving him around for his daily ride. Both Mr. and Mrs. Lusby stay busy with volunteer work and getting together with family and friends. Randy also serves as a director of MUD 61. Randy is a long-time season ticket holder of Katy football and also enjoys going to various Katy ISD baseball games.
The Lusby’s always regarded this neighborhood as one of the best kept secrets in the area. In today’s terms, lots are big and the houses are roomy. It’s a tight knit neighborhood with good people living here.
They regard their yard as fairly simple and try to keep it well groomed. Their home and trees are well lit in the evening and at night. The front yard is highlighted by several large trees. One is a pine that was an original tree from the builder. They also have a large live oak and an elm tree. Even though it’s in the backyard, the top of a very large oak can be seen above the roof of the house from the street. The tree has a history. It was hand dug from a friend’s farm in Brenham, TX and had been growing under a canopy of larger oaks. It was located by an old confederate well on the property. It seems to have found a nice home on their lot for at least the last 35 years.
Congratulations Randy and Cathie Lusby on receiving our Yard of the Month award for May 2022. Thank you for contributing to the beauty of our neighborhood.
