Did Kathleen graduate from LCC in 1968. If so my name then would have been Linda Dove and Linda Thorland. She, I and Dianne Dalton were in separable during our schooling there. I have tried to find Kathleen on different sites for some time. I am so sorry for your loss. Please let me know if this is the person I knew. [email protected] Thanks

My sister and I are so sorry to hear of your sister. We had known Kathleen for about 10 years. I worked with Kathleen at St. Lawerence Hospital. Our greatest memories will be the cross counry skiing we did in Holt. We will all certainly miss her, and I just wanted to know how much we enjoyed knowning Kathleen and that she was a great friend. It is a great loss for us also, that our prayer are with you and your family at this sorrowful time.

Sincerely Irene and Lorraine Wos

John, I'm sorry to hear about your sister. I know when I saw you last summer, you said you'd stayed in Michigan because she was sick. It must be especially hard losing so many family members in such a short time, so I wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you.

I first met Kathleen in Zermatt in 2001, and was delighted to find myself hiking with her again in Sulden and Welschnofen, and again in Champoluc and Cogne. I always enjoyed the times I spent with her - her warmth, her sense of humor, and her good spirits even when conditions were less than ideal made her the best traveling companion one could hope for. I'm going to miss her terribly.
