Kitty Broman Putnam

I had the privilege and good fortune to know and take care of Kitty in the latter part of her life. I felt we were kindred spirits and were meant to be together as friends as well as client and caregiver. We laughed, cooked, read, shopped, and sometimes took life serious. She was generous, kind and loving. Every time she left town, I worried; every time I left the house, she worried. I missed her when she took her final trip back east not knowing when I would see her again. I miss you Kitty...

For many years, the Kitty Broman & Bill Putnam duo were a standard of involved television broadcasting in the Springfield area, and the Connecticut Valley. As did the 17th century stake outs which gave the Pioneer Valley its name, Kitty Broman joined a true pioneer in UHF commercially feasibile television. Her personality and daily work matched.

Thanks Mom, love Morgan.

I have had the pleasure of having met Kitty man times growing up in the Springfield area. She was loved by so many. She was a hard working woman who was always very generous to our community here in Western Massachusetts. My Mom loved her show and we watched often. Rest in Peace Kitty. Your life opened doors to so many woman who came after you. To her family, I am sorry for your loss.

Dear Karen & Family: I am so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. I have such fond memories of seeing her at Chamber of Commerce Breakfasts and other business functions over the years, as well as being interviewed by her on TV about my camper experiences when I was a young teen. I also recall that I met my husband at your home so, for lots of reasons, you and your family hold a fond place in my heart. Please accept my condolences on the loss of your Mom, an extremely amazing lady.

Her positive influence will...
