All of us who knew her will miss her and her cheerful ways. I grew up with Kitty, Bill and Danny and have much respect for Earl, Rose and the children.

Kitty, Angela, Mr. Mondrage,

I am so very sorry to be reading of the passing of your precious beloved one. It has been much too long since I have seen your sweet mother, Kitty, and father as far as that goes; however, I have never forgotten them and their sweet kindness. I always enjoyed them for they both had great personalities (like mother, like daughter). They certainly didn't let any grass grown under their feet. I remember they were always on the go and enjoyed life to the fullness!

Kitty, I didn't know about this untill about 15 minutes ago for Andy and I have been out of town for a long weekend and just came in and I was checking out the obituaries since last Thursday and I caught this. I am really sorry for your loss for I know how very close you were to your parents and how much you and your family loved each other. You have precious memories to carry in your heart forever that nothing can take away. May God be with each of you as you go thru this heartbreak and give you peace and comfort in all of the days and years to come. Your mother is now at home with our Lord on higher ground of the promised land of "Beulah Land, Sweet Beulah Land" and as long as you believe and have accepted this (and I know that you have and I know that she did) you will be able to get thru this very sorrowful time because you know that you will be together again some sweet, great day!

Kitty, you and your brother and family have been blessed to have enjoyed your parents this long. I will have to call Inez to see if she knew about your mother for I am thinking she doesn't since she hasn't called me. Come to see me sometime and we will go over to visit Inez for I know that it would please her.

I want you and John to know that you have a very good and smart daughter who has never been afraid of hard work. I mentioned to Inez here just a few months ago that I would love to see you and your parents again and if I ever get caught up, I was going to do just that. I am so bad to put things off when I shouldn't for we never know what the next minute will bring. Just like, Andy and I was going out to see Dawn Woody White and on the Saturday that God called her home I called the hospital to see if she was still there or gone home or been moved to another hospital and as I was talking to one of the nurses about her and had her to transfer me to Dawnie's room to talk to Adrian - Dawnie's mother answened and told me, " Dawnie has gone". I wished that I had been at least a day earlier for God had called Dawnie home, I believe, as the nurse and I was speaking.

Kitty, I tell you this because I know that you knew Dawn and I wished that I had visit her and your mother. May God be with you'll and bless you'll always. I want you to know that just because we don't see each other anymore, it isn't because I don't think of you or love you anymore for I do often think about you and Barbara and the great times we had and I will always love you both and hold great and fun memories of you both.

If there is anything I can do for you or help you with, just let me know. I did see Brenda White Brickley a few weeks ago at her sister-in-law's, Dawn Woody White, funeral and that was the first time that I have seen her since Alexis funeral.
