Friends and family look forward to getting her hand crafted Christmas cards each year, knowing they were painstakingly made just for them. Kathy shared this love of crafts with her granddaughter, Natalie. When Natalie came to visit, Kathy had all kinds of crafts ready to complete together. These were special times for the two of them.
