My deepest sympathy to Edie, Steve and family. Although I have not seen Kathy in a number of years, she has never been very far from my heart and she was always in my thoughts. We went through a lot together, good times and bad. She was a wonderful person, a loyal and true friend, someone who always stood by her friends through thick and thin. We had some great times together going on bowling tournments, staying up late at her mom's, singing, Saints games, Clearmont Harbor, Ft. Lauderdale, and just plain fun. I just recently found out about her illness and death through a mutual friend and I am so sorry I did not know sooner. I moved out of New Orleans many years ago but I never forgot what a dear friend Kathy was to me. Kathy will be truly missed by everyone. She was a special lady, full of compassion, had a zest for life and a genuine all around good person. Sleep peacefully my friend and may God Bless you.
