Well babe its been almost a year..I still cant believe it.. As youve seen, our kids are taking very good care of me as you requested. Our son has stepped right into your shoes and is filling them as you did, He is a wonderful father and husband and im sure your just as proud of him as I am. The girls, well the girls are what we expected, trying to stay strong and watching my back at all times, just as Jim and Quayla does. Our grandchildren, well what can you say about perfection..i am so proud of the four of them and love them enough for the both of us..I LOVE and MISS you more then I can say,,I wait for the day we are together again, for we were ment to be together for eternity...You are my Love and my Life..til we are together again I send you all my Love for ever and always...Your Kathie..

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.In life we loved you dearly ,in death we do the same .It broke our hearts to lose you ,you did not go alone;for part of us went with you ,the day God called you home.You left us peaceful memories ,your love is still our guide;and though we cannot see you ,you are always at our sisde .Our family chain is broken,and nothing seems the same:but as God calls us one by one,the chain will link again .
