So very saddened to hear of Kathy’s passing. She was such a warm and friendly person who welcomed me into her family when I was 18 years old and she was about 21 or 22. We had so many great laughs and family dinners. During our last conversation a few days before she passed, she talked about all three of her kids and each of her precious grandchildren. We laughed that if we had known how awesome grandchildren were, we’d have had them first.. Even though years would pass between the times we were physically together, we always stayed in touch and would pick up right where we left off. I will always remember her silly laugh – and her delicious oyster stuffing, even though she lamented that she and I were the only ones who loved it. My sincere condolences to her whole family.
