    I still find myself thinking of Kathy on a regular basis. We were tight in high school and communicated via Facebook toward the end. She was always such a beautiful girl, lady and woman in my eyes - Pat B-R

    You dedicated the song "You were always on my mind" as I strayed away from home earlier than the other girls and was a wanderer. It brought tears whenever I heard it and always will. NOW, You will always be on my mind, always and forever! Your in my heart and soul and will now be our angel! I love you mOM (the way you always signed your cards). Love Christine

    Ozzie....we are sorry for your loss. We will keep you and your family in our thoughts & prayers.

    Aunt Kathy, you will be dearly missed! You were one of the most beautiful, vibrant and creative people I've ever known. You always made me feel important and good. Because of you and Beth I took an interest in the power of positivity and apply it everyday. During any trials and joys of my life, you would always have encouraging wisdom or a word of praise. I had a dream of you last night and you were flying in heaven and flew above us to say hi, but only real quick because you were having so much fun flying around (that made me chuckle). You were wearing a red shirt and were with some other people...maybe your brothers? I love you and thank you for making family so important.

    I knew Kathy from high school. She was a beautiful soul, inside and out. Always kind to others. She loved her large family and very often spoke of having a large and loving family herself. Being a mom was paramount to Kathy. I have no doubt she more than accomplished that goal and then some. Deepest condolences to her family.

  • 05/25/2021

    I was really sad to read of Kathy's passing. We worked together and I got to know her when I was training her at a local retailer. She stopped in occasionally to say hi, so I knew she had been sick. I remember the story she told of leaving the car running in front of the house all night long. We laughed so hard, surprised it had not got stolen! She was really a hoot to work with, we laughed, oh did we laugh! I will miss her & her laugh!

  • 05/25/2021

Until we meet again in a better place xoxo
