We have such fond memories of Katherine.
She was a very special lady. We always
loved to spend time with her and Howard
at our Franklin meetings. She had the
sweetest smile. She was one of the kindest people we have ever known. We deeply regret that we will not be
able to attend the services for Katherine. She will be greatly missed.
Our love to the family, Linda and Gerald Culbreth

Mrs. Railey was such a sweet lady. She lived next to my parents for years. I enjoyed talking to her when I visited PC. My thoughts are with your family.

My memories of Aunt Katherine are of a lovely genteel southern belle, but with a quiet determination. Dad called her the iron fist in the velvet glove. They are together now as they were when they were children. All our love to you Jim, Don & families.
