I worked with Kathleen at Berndsen-Jones for four years. At my wedding in 1980, after much coaxing from Suzie Ford, Becky Eberle and Pat Phillips she fought off a bunch of 20-somethings and managed to catch my bouquet! She was one of the most spirited and fun-loving women I have ever met. Years later I ran into her at Paul's and she still had that same vivacious personality. It was a joy to have known Kathleen.

I am so sorry to hear of Kathleen's passing. She was such a sweet lady and always cheerful and friendly whenever I would run into her around town. She was a great lady.

To my good friends, Colleen, Theresa, Guy, Gar and MacKenna...I loved your mother and grandmother! She was such a delight to be around and so full of life. She always seemed to be happy and had a smile on her face which made others (like me) look forward to being in her presence. I know she will be greatly missed...thanks for sharing her with the rest of us!
