Thanks again for all of your support

Kathy was a wonderful person who was an outstanding teacher, mentor, and friend. I had the privilege of taking her workshops when I was a new teacher and teaching with her at Cal-State Bakersfeld. She was bigger than life and had a fierce passion for helping fellow teachers reach their utmost potential. I feel blessed to call her my friend. I will miss her very much. I'm certain that God is putting her magnificent talents to work in Heaven!

Both of my children had the privilege of having Kathy as a teacher at Norris School. I loved running into her at different workshops and the County's Oral Language Festival. She was a unique personality, always bubbly, who will be missed by all who knew her. Condolences to her family and to Jim.
