To the entire Bair family and all who loved Mrs. Bair you are in my thoughts. I didn’t know her but I can tell by her sweet smile and kind eyes she must have been a wonderful woman. Take comfort in knowing she is now watching over you.

Kitty was one of the nicest women I've ever known. She was nice to everyone at school and never changed. She is alive and well in heaven today. May God give peace to her family during this time.

Gene and family-I am so very sorry for the loss of your dear wife, mom, and grandmother. I remember Kitty as such a sweet and lovely lady who had a soft voice and a quick wit. I remember her as being so kind to everyone she talked to. She certainly was a treasure! You have my deepest sympathy.
