Her favorite movies were those of werewolves and you would often hear her howling at the moon getting all the neighborhood dogs howling too!

Joslin, Antioch, Tenn.; sister, Mary Reilly, Tullahoma, Tenn.; brother, Bruce Cook, Jamestown, N.Y.; ten grandchildren; Mike Laughery, Shawn Laughery, Cory Laughery, Jerry Holes Jr., Jennifer Holes Roos, Wendy, Samantha Joslin Avila, Anjel Joslin, Nicolas Joslin Cruz, Galeno Joslin Cruz; five great-grandchildren; Xavier Laughery, Jasmine Laughery, Kairi Laughery, Nova Holes, Hailey Holes.

Mom, I can't believe you're gone. It's been so hard and I miss you so much. I've been trying to remember all the good times we had during the holidays and birthday parties. I'll never forget you dancing and having a great time esp in the bounce house. Every time we went back home to Pa to visit family w/ Lisa and Renae we had so much fun. I'll always remember the time we went Disney and rented that big van we had a blast. We had the best time of our life! I'll always cherish the memories. I know you're with Dad now and all the other family. When I hear your Phil Collins song, In the Air Tonight, I know you and dad are with me. Give Tammy, Robin, gramma and grandpa a hug from me, Heather, Lisa and Renae. I love you always and 4-ever. Love TJ

Welp, I've dreaded writing on here,cause its still so surreal! I cant believe the time has come to say goodbye. Kathy you were one of very few angels to walk this earth. You've always welcomed me in your home when heather and I were up having fun all night. Even tucked me in a couple times lol. Fed me while drunk "Now go to bed,yous gonna feel this in the morning!" Lol so funny and so sweet... Its hard babe ,it really is! Seeing Heather get that phone call,knowing her pain cause just 2 years ago it was me! Seeing her struggle everyday since your passing. What do you say? How do you console her? I cant,I know exactly how she feels. How Lisa,Renee,Tj,and Bff feel. Please watch over them babe! They need you and your guidance. Rest Easy momma! Love you xoxo

Mama... I can't believe this is real. My heart is breaking into so many little pieces right now. The only comfort I have is knowing that you are no longer in any pain and with Tam and Robin. And, I know Gramma and Grandpa were there to meet you at the gates waiting to hold you in their arms once again. I know you are holding and loving on Ana Luna and Lillian, giving them lots of hugs and kisses. You were the BEST MOM IN THE WORLD. I love you, Mom! I'll forever miss you. Until we meet again, rest peacefully.
