Carrie, Michelle, & family- Our hearts are very sadden. Kathy touched each one of us in a very special way. Her laughter, kindness, her loving & giving. She allow us and herself to be goofy!!!! A gift that lot of people don't allow themselves to have. I am very honored & blessed to have been goofy along with her!!!! As we remember her in our own special way, may the memories flow slowly. For me - my memories are abundance - from our 1st meeting-(Insurance unit at Spfld Clinic) -20+ years in between- to our last (at her favorite place to eat - Golden Corral) with Joe, Jay, Sharon & David. Kathy smiling as she saw me - her huge smile! We didn't know this years would fly so quickly & bring us here to the present. As we celebrate her life - we cry, we laugh, we are joyful, we are angry & we are forgiving because Kathy showed each one of us how to forgive. She will always be with you & with each one of us- In a song-as you listen. When you see animals, birds - the ones with out a voice. Kathy was their voice, as she cared for them, especially the ones hurt & scared, giving them love - to some that never knew love before until Kathy held them in her arms & her big heart! In the days ahead, we will see her - in a person within a crowd - at 1st you will think "Kathy?" then as we look again, the person will not resemble her at all. But she was there, for only a few seconds, showing us that she loved each one of us. We will feel her in a breeze as it touches us softly. We will see her spirit in a beautiful butterfly floating gently by. "Kathy - my darling, thank you for allowing my family to be part of you over these years!! My prayer for you to know how much you were loved. Now as a beautiful Guardian Angel - you will see!!! Give Tom a hug for us!!!" Till we meet again. Love you! ~
