I am deeply saddened to learn of Kathy's passing.

I knew Kathy in the 1980s when we shared dinners, lunches, wine and conversation. She was an inspiring woman, tackling large life challenges and succeeding. She was also a gentle and compassionate woman. My life was better for having known her.

The service was beautiful and we will miss Kathy very much. She was a large part of our Movie Group and I for one can't believe our Group will be the same without her to argue with - it always added to the excitement and most of the time was fun. We loved her and will miss her, Lou and Al Sondern

So sorry for your loss Trisa and family. Kathy will be greatly missed by the Dept. of Labor. She was an intelligent and caring person and a wonderful advocate for the working person. Our sincere condolences, Vicky and Bill Fisher.
