Letter to Kathleen:
Your cup runneth over, more than
half full. Love and compassion was always your rule.
Your cup runneth over, and blest us all. You loved us, took care of us, large and small.
We weep for ourselves, our cups, alas, not full. You'll surely be missed, t'will be our rule.
Remember us, pray for us, in your eternal bliss. For once again, you'll be sorely missed.
Friends in Christ,

To the Rieser girls...I am so sorry for your loss...Kathleen was always interested in what was going on in everyone's lives...I may have gone a year or two having not seen her, but when I did she inevitably asked about me, my life, my children, my family...very selfless. That's a very special quality and not easily found. I am so sad for your loss...so many losses for your family in a short time. My thoughts and prayers are with you right now...I will see you over the next two days to celebrate the goodness that Kathleen possessed. Love, Tracy

Mary, Julie, Sheila and Caroline,
You have our deepest sympathy. Kathleen was a very kind and generous person. Years ago, she took her little cousins to Eastmoor Drug store and let us each fill up a bag with candy. She will be missed. Love, Marianne Rocchi and your Chicago Christin cousins

Kathi's sudden death was such a shock to me, and the tremendous loss of a friend. I was blessed to know this kind-hearted person, and her passing has left a hole in the world. She was a very self-sacrificing person who always put the needs of others first, with no regrets. Thoughtful and generous, she was special. She will be missed but will remain alive in my heart and memory. My condolences go out to the Rieser family on losing Kathi so early, but they can take solace in the fact that she will live in the memories of the many that she helped and befriended and they can be proud to have had such a member in their family.

Kathy had such a caring heart. I remember I was a senior in high school, my mom worked as her instructional assistant and she took me for my very first makeover at Clinique even had my hair done, to get ready for prom. She was very caring, she has been like a second mother to me, and I will miss her greatly!!!
