Ms. Kathryn was a very special light from GOD to me and my family and we will always treasure her spirit to know she was a gift from GOD that loved all who came in her paths of life. May we all treasure her connection to us and remember her smile of trust as we continue to love the LORD as she did. Much blessings to the family and to her daughter Kelly.
