We always remember Kathy with a smile! Not only do thoughts of her put one on our faces, but the fact that she always seemed so happy to see us, no matter how long it had been. It's always hard to have someone with that type of quality taken from you... but Melissa and I thank God that we were able to know her. We are saddened by everyone's loss, but especially Ron, Dylan, Cassidy, and Austin's. The entire family is in our prayers!
