Our beloved sister and family Matriarch will be dearly missed by the many friends and family members she graced her presence with, leaving all of us heartbroken. However, her abbreviated life will be cherished and remembered for the amazing love she shared, her incredible sense of humor, both her inner and outer beauty, and strong work ethic.
She will be joining her parents, Robert and Elvira Bell in Heaven and is survived by her brothers Steven Bell, Kenneth Bell, and Thomas Bell.
Her Memorial Service will be held on Jan. 28 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Williams Church, 611 S El Monte Ave, Los Altos Hills, CA 94022. Immediately following will be her burial service at Gate of Heaven Cemetery, 22555 Cristo Rey Dr, Los Altos, CA 94024.

I loved Kathie, when she entered a room she was a ray of sunshine and her smile lit up the room. The laughter and times we shared together will always be embedded in my mind and cherished in my heart! May you Rest In Peace! You called me your "Big Sis" and I loved that you felt that way about me and I thank you...I love you..your sparkle your joy and how much you lived life and everything around you. I am so happy that our paths crossed through your friendship with Robin and I will be forever grateful!
