Kathleen (Katy to us) came into our family 23 years ago and made John's dad very happy. She was a class act and fit in the family right away. When she married into the family, she gained four children and their spouses, several grandchildren and even great grandchildren that she was always kind towards.

Sad to say goodbye, Katy...but so glad we got to know you.

I met and knew Katie through the gatherings and vacations with my husband's golf group. Katie was always so nice & gracious, fun to be with! I'm so sorry, John, for your loss! My prayers are with you.
