Kathy...I will always love you. You were such a nice person. LA is not the easiest place to live and it was a joy having you in my life. I'll never forget how you were there when I went through a very difficult time in my life. And you uplifted me. I am so glad that I had you in my life. You have left a mark on this world. And now you are making a mark in Heaven. You were loved.
Love always, Scotti

I met Kathy in 1988 while auditioning for a Pizza Hut commercial at TLC Casting and we remained friends for the next 23 years. Kathy, your smile and sweet voice brightened my life. You saved many cats and dogs lives and your heart was always open. I know your Dad was there to greet. I miss you terribly and always will. I love you dear friend.

I lived down the street from Kathy and her family on St. Rose Drive, and also graduated from high school together. I am so sorry to hear of her passing, I am sure the Lord will hold her in the palm of his hand. My thoughts and prayers to the family.

Kathy and I went to high school together so many yrs ago. I was happy to reconnect with her as a friend on Facebook. I will always remember her sweet nature and that beautiful smile.
May God comfort her family and friends and bless you all with fond memories of Kathy.

My Sweet Kathy:

Without you there is a a big hole in my heart because you became my best friend for 31 years since you arrived in LA. You are my rock, my family and are more like a sister to me. How many times were we asked if we were sisters?

I miss your laugh, unconditional love and acceptance. We had similar values and I don't think I'll be lucky to experience that again. I will cherish the memories of our friendship -- from being neighbors to working together to sharing our love of animals to socializing to just supporting each other through the twists and turns of life

My heart goes out to your family who made you into such a special person.

I am so lucky and honored that you came into my life -- you are the Gold Standard for Friendship.

Though my heart aches so much, not a day will pass without a thought or memory of you because I love you so much!

Love you forever,

Barbara Pomykalski

Kathy, I will always remember meeting you 35 years ago in Marina Del Rey, CA doing extra work on a movie that I can't even remember the name of. We befriended each other that night and were friends ever since. You were one of my Grandmother's extra grandchild and she loved you very much. Kathy you were taken from us to soon, but I know God had his reason. I will miss your smiling face my dear friend!
Love you always,

Kathy, our dear friend! This news has taken us by surprise. It seems that we've been friends forever...over 20 years; when I moved in below you at Delmas Terrace. I was pregnant with Tamara and April (my sister), who lived next to me, was pregnant with Chris. We've shared many good times and laughs together, even after I moved back to TN, we still kept in touch and saw each other when I came to L.A.

You were a great and special friend me and to April and have been there for her kids, Brian and Chris.

You will always have a special place in our hearts! We love and will miss you forever!

"Kathy the Cat Lady" we'll never forget you!

Kath, my heart will never be the same, my friend!

Little did I know that we would be friends for almost 35 years when met as roommates in college!

I will miss my "Happy Birthday" and "Hey, Jude" songs! And yes, I know that it is always warmer in LA! :)

So, "Tintface" I could write a book, but it is difficult to see through my tears!

All my love,
