Kathleen was an amazing lady! I enjoyed getting to know her and hearing of her stories as a teacher. It was a privilege to care for a fellow NDA alumnae, something we discussed often. Offering prayers for her perpetual peace after a lifetime of compassionate teaching

Kathleen was a good neighbor on Oak Road in Milton. She always had a story to tell. And she loved her dogs! Condolences from the Conboy-O'Gradys of Oak Road.

My oldest friend. Our parents were neighbors, and Kathy was a year old when I was born. We maintained contact until recently as did our parents during their lives. Rest in peace, old friend. Jill
