    Kathy was a very special person. She would always have a smile and touched the life of every one she met. I have many fond memories of times we spent together from high school and beyond. She will be missed dearly. She loved her family and friends. May your memories carry you thru as she will be in mine forever. With our deepest sympathy. RIP Kathy, my friend.

    To Terry and family, and Jerilyn and family, my deepest sympathy. I am so sorry that I did not know Kathy was sick. She was the most caring, loving friend and neighbor when I was in Baltic. She was so happy and blessed when she met you, Terry! Lisa, she was so proud of you! I did not get to know you boys,but know she was proud of you in sports, etc. My heart, prayers, and deepest sympathy is with you all in the passing of this beautiful lady.

Terry, the devotion you displayed to Kathy was so beautiful and the bond you had for each other was very evident when she would look at you and smile. Her life was cut short but you had so many wonderful memories and they will help you get through this difficult time. It is so hard to lose someone you love, but know she will be in your hearts forever. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this most difficult time and my deepest sympathies to all of you!!
