Dearest Family of Kathy:

No words can express how deeply saddened I am by Kathy's passing. I had only been doing her nails for about a year now but she always made smile with her facinating stories and her cheery way.
They say people are put in your life for a reason and sometimes for only a little while. Kathy came my way to show me to make the most of life , afterall she sure did.
She will be missed.....


Kathy I'll save the Sparkles for you !
