Kathy continues to stay in my thoughts and memory. Her strength and bravery and fight, to handle any of hardships as well as the cancer continue to help me to stay strong. When I feel like giving up I think,"what would Kathy say" and push on.

Kathy was a wonderful friend and neighbor. Her life was meaningful to our family, as she exemplified bravery along with a positive spirit, despite every one of her hardships. She never complained, and always had a smile on her face. She will be greatly missed, but forever remembered.

Rose, John, Luke and James,
Kathy will be missed by alot of us. Her unbreakable spirit and strenght through adversity paled only in comparison to her zest for life and love for her friends and family ( two or four legged ). A true inspiration.
