Kathy was on my mind just a couple days ago when I was clearing off my drawing table. She will not be forgotten. She has left a beautiful legacy of her artistic talent and kindness.

She was such a great friend when we were quite little. I remember always coming over and going over the ladder at the fence to play with Barb.

Kathy was not only a talented artist, but also a wonderful teacher.I studied pastel painting under her guidance. Kathy was always positive in her critique. She gave me the encouragement to teach an art class continue my art endeavours. Thank you, Kathy for sharing your knowledge and friendship with your students. You are forever gratefully in my memory.
