To kathy's family, First , let me say how sorry I am for your loss, Kathy was truly a breath of fresh air ! She will be greatly missed !I first met Kathy when I became Ms Kitty's aide over 16 years ago , ( I know longer work there ) we became instant friends. I loved Kathy , the kids loved Kathy too , everyone loved Kathy !!!One thing that sticks out clear in my mind is the love she had for her family!! She was always talking about "Her Joey" and the kids ! ( at that time there was no grand babies yet) How she would make us laugh with all her stories!!! It was a honor to call Kathy my friend , she will be missed by many! We look forward to the time when God promises at Revelations 21:3,4 that death , sorrow and pain will be no more and God will Wipe all tears away! May Kathy Rest In Peace unto the Great day when God will call her awake again , into the beautiful Paradise ! John5:28,29 My you find some comfort in those scriptures and in knowing many people loved and cared about your wife , your mom !!! Much love , Dianna Smith Sorry, I was unable to attend the Visitation I am Currently out of town .

I am so sorry for your loss. Kathy always had a smile and knew just what to say to make you laugh. She was wonderful with the kids at Bright Promise when we worked together years ago. She had nothing but wonderful things to say about her family and was so excited when she became a grandmother. Although we didn't see each other much as years passed she was always smiling whenever I did see her. She will truly be missed.
