I had the pleasure of working with Kathleen for many years at Courtney Manor. She was hard working, dedicated, dependable, and gave her all each and every day. Kathy was one of the kindest, sweetest ladies you could ever meet. Truly one of a kind.
"A beautiful soul is never forgotten and always remembered with great love"
Prayers to all Kathy's friends and family.
Till we meet again my friend
