Our condolences go out to Henry and the Kinicki family.Â  What I remember most about Aunt Kathy was her kindness, generosity, sense of humor, knowledge of family history and willingness to help with anything you asked her for.Â  Â She was a great story teller and it was always nice to hear her talk about the good old days which included my Mom,Â  Aunt Sherry, Grannie and Grandpa.Â  She would also hand downÂ  some of the old traditions of our family (recipes, Christmas cookies baking and Easter egg decorating).Â  We will miss you Aunt Kathy.

While cleaning and listening I heard a song that expresses our feelings to each other. Â I know by the way you treated me, cared for me, and the way we interacted together you feel this way. I know in my mind and in my heart this is how I feel also. Kathy your dedication to me, and Henry' dedication to Kathy. Â Dolly Parton song 'I will always LOVE you'.

Dear Kinicky Family, we are very sorry for the loss of Kathy. Growing up I remember swinging on the front porch swing with her talking about ANYTHING at all. She has left us way too young. May she rest in Peace now in Heaven. Love to your Family, deepest condolences.ðŸ•ŠðŸŒˆ

Aunt Kathy was glue in this family who made the gatherings, the recipes and knew the family history better than anyone else, as far as I knew. She is and always will be missed. Weâ€™re heartbroken and we want you all to know that we love you and weâ€™re thinking about you constantly. We are here for you. â¤ï¸

I worked with Kathy for many, many years until our last day when we walked out together.Â  In some ways, I am grateful for that because I don't think I could look over and not see her sitting next to me as she has for so many years.Â  We ate lunch together and shared so many memories and stories.Â Â 
The family has done a wonderful job on sharing the pictures and memories of her and the special person she was.
My heart breaks for all of her family and will remain in my thoughts and prayers.
May she forever rest in peace.


Kathy, my wonderful and loving wife of 49 years. Â You made me a better person. Â We raised 3 great children. Â Your influence has molded them into being just like you, kind and loving individuals that are willing to share their time and talents with others. Â I thought we were starting our next phase of our lives together by having the same influence on our grandchildren and others. You were taken way to soon. Â Your kind, sharing, and loving nature will be missed by us all, Â Love forever, Henry.

Thank you for sharing such great memories of my mom and a photo we would otherwise never have seen.
I remember she wore a green wig to work also, maybe St Patrick's day. Think she liked being fun/funny for you all.

My mom being an amazing grandma. We miss you so much. I wanted you to have so many more incredible moments together.

If roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, place them in my Sisterâ€™s arms and tell her theyâ€™re from me. Tell her I love her and miss her then when she turns to smile place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it everyday, but thereâ€™s an ache within my heart that will never go away. 
Iâ€™ve shared my whole life  with you big sister and as a result have a lifetime of crazy beautiful loving memories to hold unto until I see you again.  Love you always, Sherry.

Kathy and Sherry. Big sister and little sister.

Kathy/Grandma with Max Mother's Day 2019. She always had a knack for finding elaborate/perfect/unexpected presents. She got Max this rocking horse to ride while she was babysitting. I can only imagine what amazing, fun things you would have shared with Max.Â 

Grandma singing and playing with Max. You can tell they love each other. 
I know he'll be looking for you.Â
