I remember when I first met Kathy - it was in the Coffee Shop in the Pioneer
Bldg. We both worked downtown - and after seeing her so often there, we
ended up introducing ourselves, and sat together - and shared our life
stories. The rest is history!!
It was fun baking "Rosette" cookies with Kathy at Christmastime since she had a Rosette iron and we also would bake spritz cookies, too. She and Chris had a magnificent Christmas village display in their living room, and they would have a reception for family and friends to admire this outstanding "work of art." It was gorgeous, and really fun to watch the figures that would move. Kathy was a good friend, and we will really miss her and her
cute sense of humor. Our Love and Deepest Sympathy,
Marilyn and Jerry Litschke
