Kathy oriented me when I first joined Sunrise Senior Living of Annapolis and I will never forget her. She was a person that was extremely organized, knowledgeable, sometimes demanding, a very strong, passionate woman who did everything "by the book" and I will never forget her! She deserves a peaceful rest for her weary but forever fighting soul!
