Don,
I was sorry to hear of Kathy's passing. Although it has been many years since I have seen either of you I still remember her warm smile and great sense of humor. Her brother Pat gave me an update last year at our Fr. Baker H.S. reunion. My prayers are with you at this time.

Dear Family,
Your loss must be great, but Kathy's rewards are greater!
The wonderful memories I share with Kathy and all the fun, rewarding experiences we shared.
Being at Trocaire with Kathy, all those midnight CRAM hours, will always remain with me. Traveling to Niagra Falls to "SIT" for the Boards, the anxiety of waiting for results were all made easier by Kathy's constant Positive Outlook and humor through it all. The just rewards of passing the Boards, actually being RN's was only made greater be having Kathy as a friend and Fellow grad.
She was always strong, caring and loving. Bright a ray of sunshine every day. She was the "wind beneath my wings!

Dear Kathy- I will always remember your smiling face and hello walking past my house on Lockwood and as my warm hearted classmate at Old Holy Family. Also as a great friend of my wife Jane in Nursing school and to both of us these past eon years. Regrets to the Lockwood McCarthy"s, the Pattersons(Bob) and the McGuires (Don) who were a great part of your life. We will remember your joy of life.

Kathy was a truly wonderful human being who always lit up a room whenever she arrived. I remember her at one of our parties in the Bayshores clubhouse and she said "Geez - I can't hear a thing in here. Everyone's got that 'Irish Whisper'". I will sure miss laughing with her. My heart goes out to my Uncle Don and the Patterson family (I haven't seen you all since Crystal Beach), but please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers at this trying time.

God bless you all.
