I was deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I always enjoyed my conversations with Kitty over the years, at school, in the front yard, and other events in the neighborhood. I admired her insightfulness and her compassionate. My thoughts are with you and the children. Kitty will be missed.

January 21, 2012

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Kitty was a wonderful, caring and fun person. Long after our retirement from the NIH we stayed in touch and were able to reminisce about the "old days" at the many church lunches. We will miss these get-togethers.
Our deepest condolences.

First time I met Kitty was at NIH, she was kind, funny, smart, no fuss person, she made a lot of scientists from different parts of the world feel welcome and at ease, including me. When I met her much later, she was working at FDA, and Kitty was exactly the same person, with great sense of humor, sharp, bright and strong and as kind as always! And that's Kitty, I've known and will remember ...
