KATHRYN M. DEMPSEY

After trying to locate a cousin of ours Joan Gilreath Dempsey,I came across this article. My heart goes out to this beautiful family.

So sad thinking about Kathy's passing. My heart breaks for her amazing family and friends who love her so much and made her life so special, as Kathy did for them. I have fond memories of going dancing with Kathy at The 9 where she always literally dressed to the nines. Rest in peace, beautiful angel.

Kathy, you are in our thoughts and prayers....Rest in Peace.

Sorr sorry to have learned about Cathys passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to her friends and family.

I graduated with Kathy in the Class of 1983, she was a very friendly, funny and all around great person. I am so sorry for all of her family and friends, such a terrible loss of such a beautiful person. I now live in Florida, and would have been there if I could have. Thoughts and prayers to everyone in this difficult time,

Growing up in the old neighborhood, I kind of looked at Kathy as an older sister figure. She always had words to pick you up when you were down.And spent countless hours trying to teach me to dance The Hustle after school at Jean Baima's house. I have many fond memories of her. Although I have not seen much of Kathy over the years, when I did on occasion, she struck me as the same warm person I had known as a kid. Forever a positive word for everybody that crossed her path.

I met Kathy 25 years ago thru Brenda (Chiasson) Lichter.
She was a beam of light, full of mischief and such a beautiful Spirit.
Every time I saw her, she had a smile on her face, a funny story to tell and was always dressed in style and fashion.
She was a lady, she was a rare gem, she knew how to celebrate life. Kathy was special.
So, today although your soul is heavy, your tears are many... we should celebrate Kathy's life and the fact that we were all blessed to have had her...

My wife and I were very saddened to hear about the loss of Kathy. May peace and comfort find you all during this difficult time.

I sat across from Kathy in homeroom in Junior High School - I think it was Mr. McClennan's homeroom. Kathy was always so well put together! I remember her big smile too. MANY years later I saw her at a Lakeview Reunion. She talked about her illness and how all she wanted was to spend a nice Christmas with her kids. Ever the fashionista - even in illness. Kathy - you gotta be in the designer section in heaven. No other spot would do you justice.. xo xo Charlene Cloney
