my family was so sad hearing the news of Kathy passing and our condolences go out to Floyd and Debbie and the family....the first thing my mother said when I told her, was that my father really, really liked her, and that really means a lot to me. God Bless.

Uncle Floyd and Family, our deepest sympathies. We only have fond memories of aunt Kathy, she was very down to earth and kind. She will be missed. Her nephew Eddie and wife Esther.
