Dear Tom and Peggy, May God give you the strength and comfort at this time. It's a horrible tragedy. We met at Georgetown when Kathleen and our daughter, Laura were juniors in HS and participated in a summer program together. Laura was terribly homesick and Kathleen's friendship made all the difference. We were very grateful to Kathleen for the beauiful friend she was to our daughter that summer. Our prayers are with your family. The Cofino Family

Dear Tom and Peggy,
I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I have delightful memories of Kathleen - helping her with Spanish homework in your kitchen at Christchurch Hill. You were doing laundry (as ever) and Kevin kept bounding into the room with a loose tooth. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our daughter Glenna attended the University of Glasgow with Kathleen in 2008. Kathleen surrounded Glenna with care and friendship on their adventures. We live in Canada and as parents we felt a tremendous sense of relief and support knowing that Glenna was with a kind person. Glenna had the opportunity to spend time in London with Kathleen's family. Again we felt a sense of calm knowing that Glenna was amongst kind and caring people. I continue to pray for Kathleen and her wonderful family. A...
