Dearest Kathleen Mary, the world is surely dimmer without your light shining bright on those who were so fortunate to have been in your presence. We´ve shared so many incredible memories together. I miss you every day and I´ll never stop loving you. You left this earth way too soon. You still had so much life to live and so much love to give. I hope your journey fills you with awe, happiness, love and joy. I love you Kath

For my dearest friend Kathleen Mary. I will miss you every day for all the rest of my years I’ll go on loving although you although you are not here. I wish we’d gotten to say goodbye. You left so suddenly and unexpectedly. I hope you took with you the knowledge that you were so loved by so many people. You brought joy where ever you would go and your smile brightened the world. Going through all of my photo albums and looking back on all of my most cherished memories, I saw that you were with me in every part of my life. You are the dearest and truest friend Kath. I love you so much and I’ll be missing you each day that passes. Good bye Kathleen Mary
