Dear Sweet Kathy.  She will be greatly missed by us.  We have known Kathy for over 47 years.  Our camping trips in the 70s were so much fun.  I will miss her laugh, sense of humor, listening to music, long talks, chocolate chip cookies (she always baked for our children), our family parties (she always made time for).  I could go on and on, but mostly I will miss laughing with Kathy.  We laughed so hard our sides ached.  There is an ache right now, but its my heart.  I love you dearly Sweet Kathy, and will miss you so much!   May you rest in the peace of the Lord for all of eternity.

Kathy, we met 44 years ago when we first worked together at Zenith and have been friends ever since.  I'm going to miss talking, visiting and going to our favorite restaurant together.

Kathy,
  I enjoyed the many conversations we had and the memories we shared from our childhood. I know my Mom,Uncle Bud,  Aunt Dorothy and Aunt Mildred always looked forward to your visits to Ft. Madison. My brother Ron appreciated the many phone calls to him as well. I’m so happy your dog Diesel will be cared for by your friend Alice.  Will miss you.

Love, 
Your cousin Julie

My daughter has many good & fun memories with Kathy and being over at her house .

Caleb will cherish all the time and conversations they had together ❤️

Kathy showed up to surprise my grandson and bring me her delicious pumpkin bars , she loved to bake !

I told my daughter a nun from her school is here for her birthday party and my daughter tried to hide her face she had no idea it was Kathy , we all had a good laugh and Kathy stood in the costume the whole time !

Kathy was my Neighbor & friend for 30 + yrs.  My Kids & family have many fond memories of Kathy whether in the backyard or at some family parties . We shared lots of conversations & laughter together. She loved her dogs & mine as well even though my daughter’s dog had an attitude toward Kathy she said 1 day she will win her over . She Loved my grandson he was her LiL BFF , he would run outside when he saw her thru the kitchen window and they would have long conversations about what I have no idea , he will miss her dearly . she always said she was lucky to have me as her neighbor & friend and I told her I was lucky as well and she would say really , May she rest in peace , until we meet again in Heaven ❤️
