I am sorry to hear your daughter has passed.
My sympathy to you and all her friends. I was a classmate of Kathy's and will not ever forget her smile. We do not always understand the timing of a loved one passing but we must trust God has his plans for us all.

But a sense of peace, as I felt when Jeff passed, because we know Jesus is taking care of them in a better place. Much love and hugs to Bill and Helen.Love, Patty Craddock-Taylor

So shocked and so sad. I loved Kathy, and Jeff (brother deceased) was my best friend in High School. I can tell some hilarious stories about times with kathy. I loved her crazy laugh and silly sense of humor. My sincere sympathy to Bill and Helen Wise and all her friends.

Our family was able to meet Kathy through our dear Aunt Becky (Fort) and little Ellie. We had a Fancy Nancy birthday party a few years ago for our daughter, Aunt Becky, and myself. My Aunt Becky of course brought Ellie, but she also brought her 2 delightful friends Kathy and Helen as well (whom we had heard so much about). Everyone was dressed up in fancy clothes. Kathy was wearing a shirt that said, "Fancy Kathy" which we all thought was so cute and asked, "Where did you get that shirt?! It's perfect!" Little did we know that us birthday girls would soon unwrap our very own Fancy "Becky" "Laurie" and "Jadyn" shirts!
Kathy has kept in touch with me over these past few years about various activities that I could sign my kids up for like reading clubs and other activities (I home school our kids, so extra activities are always extra fun!)
Your Kathy will really, really be missed. I'm so grateful that we were able to meet her, laugh with her, and just be blessed by her amazing giving heart, thoughtfulness, and love. Our family is praying for all of you and for God's beautiful peace upon you all during this unexpected time.
