Jon, so sorry for your loss. You and Kathy had a rough 5 years. My sympathies to the DiPaolo family as well. She will certainly be missed.

Sorry for your loss. I did not know Kathleen personally, but her family and mine were friends years ago.

Kathy was a force of nature and one of the brightest, funniest people I ever knew. Jon, I am so sorry for your loss.

I am wondering if this is the Kathy I worked with at the Kenmore Library. Her husbands' name was Jon and I remember when they got married and went to Aruba for their honeymoon.
