Gerry, I just saw this obituary . You were both so wonderful to me during our husky days. Kind, welcoming and loving. I have thought about you both over the years. My life was touched by you two. Will never forget the help you offered. Pete and I are sincerely sorry for your loss!

Kathy is the mother of our son-in-law Nick. I have watched the way Nick loved his mom over the years - and it has been a beautiful thing to observe. I know that Nick's mom and dad have molded him (with the Lord's ever-present work) into the great man that Nick is today. We grieve the loss of Kathy, but rejoice in the impact she had and continues to have in the life of her beautiful family.

Nick is married to our daughter Heather and he is a blessing to our lives and we got to know Kathy,Nick´s mom. We loved her as a dear friend and mother-in-law to our Heather. Watching the way her kids loved her throughout her life and her commitment and love for her family has been an example and a testimony to us. We know that we shall see Kathy again in glory one day. Love and heartfelt condolences to the entire family. Love, Maida and Andy.
