From infancy to childhood to adulthood to parenthood, Kathy was always the same wonderful person with a bright outlook. She was the youngest in her family on Gault St, but she always got all of our jokes and shared in the great times growing up in the San Fernando Valley. Requiascat in pace, Kathy.
