Dear Joe & Family,

I am very sad to hear that Kathy passed away. You are all so blessed to have had this amazing woman as your wife and mother. Although, I have not seen her in many many years we followed each other on Instagram. She always looked so happy with her family by her side.

I will always remember her as a strong woman with a tough skin and heart of gold. She put one hundred percent into everything she did. Kathy made an impression on me when I was in my youth. She helped me get one of my first jobs when I was fifteen at Park Place Restaurant. I loved working with her. We laughed a lot and she taught me how to have a good work ethic which is something I still emulate today. Kathy was a hustler, an opportunist and a great cook from what I remember. She was a selfless woman who put everyone else first and loved her family and friends very much.

I am sorry I did not get to see her before she passed. It's funny how our lives take over and time goes by.
My deepest condolences to her beautiful family who I know will miss her immensely. May she continue to live on in all of your hearts.

Love,
Jennifer Ciccone Segalla

Dear Joe, Mike, Joe, Anthony, Desiree, Denise and, all of the Mattesi clan.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I loved Kathy with all of my heart. I am grateful that I had the gift of Kathy and all of you, growing up. You were all so important to me as a kid and, I have so many memories of GREAT times spent together. Especially of the unique, beautiful, giving, dedicated, smart, straight to the point, funny, generous, lite-spirited and no nonsense or BS "broad" that was Kathy.

You all mean the world to me. Out of site, but not out of mind, heart and soul. I cherish the memories and, I cherish all of you.

I wish you all strength during this difficult time.

Rest in Peace, Dear Cousin. I will miss you and until we meet again.

With Love,

Cousin Joey Umbrino
