"Miss Kay", as we called her, was my girl scout leader at St. Clare's. She was awesome and because of her love and enthusiasm for the Girl Scouts, I had some of the best times of my life in that troop. I have many fond memories of your mother, Cathy. My maiden name was Handzik. You also helped your mother with our troop and I appreciate your time and effort, also. Your mom was a very special person and I would guess she will be missed by many. God bless and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!
