About Us

At Legacy Transitions, we understand that life’s next chapter often comes with both excitement and challenges. Since 2003, we’ve been dedicated to guiding seniors and their families through the important process of transitioning, whether that means assistance with downsizing, relocating, or finding the right senior living community.

Founded by Cathy Bates, Legacy Transitions was built on faith compassion, trust, and a deep commitment to honoring every individual’s unique story. Cathy’s passion for serving seniors began in her own family, as she personally walked alongside both her parents and her in-laws through their transitions.

She understands firsthand the emotions, decisions, and practical details involved, and she brings that same care and understanding to every family she helps.


With more than two decades of experience, Cathy and her team have supported countless families with expertise and genuine compassion. At Legacy Transitions, we believe that transitions are not just about moving from one place to another, they are about preserving dignity, celebrating a lifetime of memories, and creating a path forward with confidence and peace of mind.

For us, it’s more than a service. It’s a calling. Helping seniors navigate change while leaving a lasting legacy is at the heart of everything we do.


Beyond the Expertise: The Woman Behind the Mission

Married to her husband Todd since 1991, Cathy cherishes a life rich in family and simple pleasures. Her three adult children, spread across California, Texas, and Florida, keep her connected to loved ones throughout the U.S. In her downtime, you'll find Cathy immersed in a captivating book, strolling along Florida's pristine beaches, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, hobbies that recharge her spirit and remind her of the importance of balance during life's transitions.

At Legacy Transitions Florida, we're more than just senior transition specialists; we're your partners in creating lasting legacies. Whether you're exploring Florida retirement communities, need help with senior moving services, or seek guidance on cost-free elder care planning, Cathy is here to support you every step of the way.
