I lived next door to Bob and Kathy on E. Olive street. We were really good friends at a difficult time and Kathy was a wonderful friend! My son, Shane, and her son, Brian, were fast friends before we had to move. Kathy welcomed everyone into her home and I don´t think she knew a stranger! I spent MUCH time at her house...getting perms, drinking coffee and talking! Kathy was an easy mom....she loved her boys and just didn´t let things bother her! I´m sure she´s happy in Heaven!
