Kathleen Reyes Obituary

Kathleen Reyes June 12, 1948 -July 20, 2020 Kathleen (Kathy), 72 years old of Lathrop,CA, suddenly passed away in the afternoon of July 20, 2020 due to Covid-19. Kathy was born June 12, 1948 in French Camp, CA. She leaves behind her loving husband David Reyes of 51 years. Kathy is survived by her 3 children, Tammy Mastel (Ernie), Raquel Reyes (Manuel Gamez) and David Reyes II (Amalia). As well as 13 grandchildren Desiree, Nicole, Michaela, David, Davina, Jasmine, Ariana, Maryke, Priscilla, David III, Zavanah, Anthony and Giana. Also, 10 great grandchildren and her brothers Daniel Flores, Tommy Martinez and sister Isabel Lopez. Kathy married her grade school sweetheart David Reyes on June 23, 1969 and raised their children in Lathrop, CA. Kathy loved to travel and see the world in its nature. Her family and dog Guerita were everything to her. Kathy was a very admiring, inspirational and strong wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend. She was the kind of person that pushed you to do your best, she was someone who wanted to see you succeed. She was the life of the party; everyone she came across knew exactly what kind of free spirited person she was. She loved to dance anywhere she went with anyone who was in arm's length. She told it like it is and did it with spunk. Kathy had energy that will be missed deeply. Kathy's celebration of life will be announced at a later date.

My condolences to David and the Family. David and Kathy have been together since we all went to Edison. I remember, I went to a class reunion at the civic. Kathy asked me to dance, I was reluctant to dance with her, because I was still doing the "Temp". We all had such a good time. Kathy rest in peace and I'll see you on the dance floor in heaven.

It's hard to believe that someone so full of energy is no longer here. You are immensely loved by so many, and we continue to mourn your loss. I'm thankful for the special occasions that we were able to enjoy together as a family, like gambling on thanksgiving and enjoying family parties...You knew how to have fun and enjoy life. I will miss your energy and your presence. I am comforted knowing that energy cannot be created or destroyed and that you remain with us in our shared universe.

Auntie Cathy always showed me and my family so much love. I remember one time hanging out with her an uncle David at the peppermill in Reno for hot August nights with all these old school cars along with so many other Stockton memories.

AS much as I don't want to believe it, I have to face the reality that my beautiful sister is no longer with me sharing life's challenges. My sister was a rock, a tower, a light at the end of a tunnel. Always there when my road was to much for me to handle. She was the first to arrive to my parties with salsa and a side dish and always making me a plate of food when I visited her. Memories of my sister will never leave me, from the days we all gather around the kitchen stove in winter to warm up, and later when Katy and David would take us swimming to Jenny Lynn and to the drive ins at night till the last time I was with her on her birthday. Katy had great love for my mother and father sister and brother and of of course her husband, kids, and grand children. Big sister till we meet again. I love you your little brother
