Bill,
Did you try it like this:
parent_id = 0
category_name = ''
select category, parent_category_id
from note.category
where category_id = 477 into category_name, parent_id;
raise notice 'curr cat, name, parent id: % % ', category_name,
parent_id;
I have found in the past that
The following SELECT INTO returns incorrect values in the variables
CATEGORY_NAME and PARENT_ID. If I copy the SELECT statement to pgAdmin,
delete the INTO clause and run the query it returns the correct values.
I am new to PostgreSQL and I must have something syntactically wrong in
the SELECT

You didn't show us the whole function
