Noone mourned your leaving for college more than your mother and now it's your time to remember all the memories you will treasure. We all walk this path eventually and just knowing that can be comforting. Blessings to all your precious family Kathy through these days.

Kathy and family...how lucky to have enjoyed your mom for all these years! The lessons she and your father taught their precious daughter are the same you teach everyday to our students. Your thoughtfulness and kindness to all you touch is an amazing trait...one I am sure came from wonderful parents. Thank you for being a friend...my heart is with you as you travel this road...Mary
