  Kathy a bright lighthouse, our neighborhood mother, always open for advice & comfort, loved our family as if it were her own. I remember the gardenia bush I cut very low because it had a plant disease on it, I did not know how much Kathy loved it & when she told me I had great regrets for not picking an alternative method to cure our bush. Some seasons have passed the bush has a little bit of growth on it & every time a gardenia flower bloomed I felt I had to trim it off nicely & give it to Kathy to let her know how much I loved her & her bush & how much I wanted to be a good neighbor & return the kindness she so warmly shined on our family. Our neighborhood & hearts, where she has grown deep roots, has suffered a tragic traumatic loss. I know how spiritually attuned Kathy is to Nature & the animals, a great guardian is journeying home, & if there is anything at all we can do to help her family please do not hesitate to ask. We love you Kathy, you will be deeply missed.

  I knew Kathy in high school and for a long time afterward. She was an amazing and very funny person. She was always laughing and making you laugh. I will always remember her. She was a good friend to all and a very good mother. May God be with her always. I am sure she is making someone laugh as I write this.

  Kathy took me under her wing 33 years ago when we met in Scottsdale AZ. She took me to Colorado with her, made me part of her family and changed my life forever. So many adventures, laughs and lessons learned over the years, I couldn't even begin to list them. Kathy never met a stranger. Everybody that was lucky enough to have met her knows what I am talking about. She was bigger than life and a fiercely loyal, funny, pillar of strength. She LOVED a party, especially one for a good cause, and her beautiful children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, her loving and devoted husband and her friends were the lights of her life. There aren't too many people outside of my family that have had as much impact on my life as my dear, forever friend Kathy and I will miss her more than words can say. I'll see you on the other side my sister. Hugs to you Rick, Mamie and the "boys". I love you all so much.

  Mommy I miss you, I miss your warm hug and your silly commentary. I miss The encouragement, and sometimes the reality checks. You left behind one amazing husband, without him I would be lost. You raised 5 AMAZING Children that Keep your spirit alive in all that they do. You were the backbone that kept everyone together and you left so many friends and beautiful family members behind. I hope heaven was ready for you, because the world is a different place without you. As for all of you, You all encourage, and inspire me with your stories and successes with my mom. I can only hope to be half the woman that my mom was. she will live on forever within us. Until I see you again, Rest in peace my beautiful Mommy you are missed but NEVER forgotten<3

  "Kathy, my chosen sister, my friend, my confidant, you have left an un-fillable hole in my heart." I send my never ending care and love to each of you, Rick, Mamie, Billy, Cary, Jon and Idgy Mae too. I will miss her daily phone calls and all of her "I love you little girl" every time she spoke to me, more than words can say. I forever cherish the memories we shared on our family trips, visits, parties and just spending time together. My home is yours, my heart is open, just a phone call away. Love you

  SUCCESS To laugh often and much  to win the respect of intelligent people  and affection of children; to earn the  appreciation of honest critics and  endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child a garden patch or redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have  succeeded. -Ralph Waldo Emerson  Kathy for all these reasons and more was one of the most successful friends I've ever known. I will remember her forever.

  I feel lucky and blessed to have met Kathy when I did; warm, funny, intelligent, thoughtful and always a straight shooter was the Kathy I got to meet, and I'm better for it. God must've really needed her help to organize some event in heaven because she still had so much love and help to spread down here to be called so soon. May the heavenly father send his angels to wrap his love around and watch over Rick, Jonathan, Mamie and all of Kathys family in their time of loss and sorrow.

  Heartfelt sympathy to Kathy's family and friends at this sorrowful time. I'm grateful to have been introduced to Kathy and she certainly lived up to the wonderful things her friends spoke of. She welcomed me into her home and circle as though she had always known me. She was warm, personable and fun loving. I can only imagine the void she has left. I pray it is filled with all the loving memories you shared with her. God bless you all with peace and comfort at this sad time.

  So sorry for your loss; we loved Kathy so much, and will miss her more than words can express. If there is anything we can do for you, PLEASE don't hesitate to reach out to us.

  How do I even find the words to express my joy and love for the gift of knowing Kathy and being called “Little Sister” & “Little Girl” by her so many times I can hear her voice as I type… I know she’s in loving hands and has been met already by the loved ones who left us before. I bet they are having one of the biggest parties in heaven that they have had in a while. I’m so happy for her and so sad for the loved ones who are having to continue to live and breathe and find a way to cope with such a devastating loss in their daily lives. I know she is with them in spirit, but it’s just not the same. My thoughts and prayers go out to them and lift them up for healing at this difficult time. God Speed Kathy! …and God Bless her family and loved ones~

  "Kathy, my chosen sister, my friend, my confidant, you left an un-fillable void in my life but I will forever hold you in my heart". Rick, Mamie, Jon, Billy, Cary, and Idgie Mae and Kyle too, I love you all. My home, my heart and my door are always open. I am but a phone call away. I shall carry with me the family memories we made together thru the years. Our trips, gatherings, birthdays, fun times and times of sorrow we always bonded as one family. Lest we forget, may that never change. I love you.
