Kathy Jo Howard

when Kathy would float to unit 41 i was always so grateful. i would always use her knowledge to enhance mine. She was one of the hardest workers smartest nurses and forever kind. i am sure her and her smiling kind husband are in a most wonderful place. Forever my friend

Kathy was a great big sister to me. She had the biggest heart and always was supportive and caring for me as the youngest. She had the kindest nature and faith about her that I will always admire. She is an example of true love to her husband Larry and family.

Kathy was a wonderful caring nurse. On April 10, 2017 I came out of a 6 1/2 hour surgery to first see her smiling and caring face. She comforted me with her words and reassured me that she would take good care of me. And she did just that. I was in excellent hands on my road to recovery. Following that I ran into her on three occasions and she remembered me and our conversations we had in the hospital. She was a great example to other young nurses on "how to be a caring and professional...

Kathy was such a lovely woman, inside and out. She was a client of mine and I was always so happy to see her and to help with whatever she might need. She took such great care of Larry too - she must have been a wonderful nurse. I send my thoughts and prayers to Kathy's family. She was a terrific example of a human being.

Kathy taught me so much as a sister. Most of all, she taught me how to treat others and how to live your faith. Kathy’s last 3 years truly tested that faith and I will always remember how she lived with dignity, bravery, and love for others.

Kathy was a great nurse. I remember her even though I forgot her name. My sincere sympathy for the family.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
