Kathleen was a great inspiration, to all who knew her, as a supervisior, she was fair and kind, always willing to lend an ear to help you out. Her laugh and holiday cheer will be missed at ECMC.

Dear Family
Kathleen and I have known each other for many years. We shared very much in common. Although we lost touch when I moved out of state, I have thought of her often. She was a strong woman with many talents and she loved her children and grandchildren dearly. I pray that you find peace and I will always treasure her friendship.

To the Family of Kathleen:
I was very sorry to hear of the loss that you have had to experience. Kathleen was a person who possessed many unique qualities. Years ago I had the privledge of working with your Mom. She was the person who became my mentor and gave me important guidance as I got my nursing home administrator license.
In the 20 years that I have been an administrator not a day goes by that I don't think of her.

I am deeply sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was a great nurse and a wonderful person. She was always there to lend an ear and a helping hand. I remember talking to her about our times spent with AF reserves, she was always so supportive. You will all be in my prayers. God Bless.

Eileen,
I knew you for years, before I even realized that I worked with your mom at ECMC. She will always be remembered for her smile, her gestures of kindness...giving out her candy...and making everyone smile, even when things were hectic in the ER. Your a wonderful person and I know exactly where you get it from. If you need anything, please let me know.

Kathleen will be missed greatly. She was such a wonderful person, problem solver, consoler, friend, listener... The list goes on! I will miss her smiling face, and how she would always stand up for "her nurses" no matter what. My sincerest condolences to her family. Thanks so much for sharing her with us!

Mom,

I love you so much!!! I will miss your hearty laugh, your beautiful smile, your warm heart, and your unconditional love. I feel blessed to have had you present during the birth of Mackenzie. You were able to comfort me in a way only a mother knows how. I will always remember the twinkle in your eyes and the joy on your face when you were able to see Mackenzie for the first time. I promise to keep your spirit alive with wonderful memories so that my daughter will know you as well as we did.
So many people look for role models and heroes in their lives; I didn't have to look far; you were mine all along.
You will be missed, but never forgotten.
Love your daughter,
Eileen
