Aunt Kat, there are so many wonderful things that can be said about you. First off, you never missed anyone´s birthday. You were always there to send a card in the mail and make that phone call on that person´s special day. And no matter what was going on in your life, you never put yourself first. You always were more concerned for the other person than you were for yourself. You were so very special, Aunt Kat. And you had a very special kind of love . Brynn and I will miss you. Say hi to Paran for me. All our love to you.
