So sorry to hear of Kandy passing. I was one of her teachers at Whitley Elementary & at the Vo-Tech when our class was there. She was the sweetest young lady! Always wanting to please. She called me "my Diane". I was Diane Bowlen back then and have many memories of her. What I remember the most was her smile! She always had one for me. And on my harder days her smile could ease the stress. She was always an angel in class-now she has her wings. God Speed Kandy.

Brian and family,
Our hearts are filled with many wonderful memories of Kandy. We especially remember when she convinced her bus driver she was to get off at our house because she did before when her Mom was on jury duty. That smile of hers was infectious. Our thoughts and prayer are with you all. May all the memories of her beautiful life be of comfort to you and especially the days to come.
Blessings
Jim and Gail
