No one could make me laugh as much as Kathy. If you had the honor of being her friend, you had a front row seat to her slaying humor in action. Kathy was the most unique person I have ever met. A friend to animals, passionate crusader to just causes, lover of nature and the Arts.  Kathy had thorough grasp of literary characters that perfectly described whatever event was taking place. Those that underestimated Kathy’s timing and intellect, would come up empty and unmatched in a battle of wits.   Kathy was generous and kind. Her New York accent was endearing to those close to her. She was no nonsense, but was very tender hearted and kind. I had the pleasure of traveling with Kathy a few times and those were among the best adventures in life. One of many, many stand outs, was when Kathy somehow hurt her ankle on a step in NYC’s Chinatown. We went to the local hospital emergency room. In the gurney next to her was a woman that had been in a fight. Then another woman was brought in and placed on the other side of Kathy. She found herself in the middle of the two injured women yelling at each other, obviously they were in the previous altercation that brought both to the emergency room. A few hours later Kathy was treated and discharged. On the way back, we were laughing hysterically as she regaled her son Harry and I, with the crazy details of her NYC hospital adventure. That was pure Kathy. She could take a sad situation and find humor to lighten everyone’s stress or sadness.

I am quite sure Kathy has obtained beloved Angel status and is lifting any trace of sadness with her amazingly funny take on life and us all.  My sincere sympathy to her husband Mike and children Harry, Phillip, and Michelle. Your mother was very much loved and will be missed. G-d bless you all.

Mrs Heller was exceptionally kind to me and as many know she was a wonderful cook and went out of her way to make you feel at home!

Kathy was my neighbor and best friend of 40 years. I could call her anytime and say "Kathy, want to come outside and talk?" She always said "Yes".  She always had the prettiest flowers. She loved making Christmas wreaths for those she loved. I will treasure mine forever. Kathy will be truly missed!!! Praying for her sweet family!!!

I got to know Kathy the past few years and found her to be a very passionate person who loved to cook and take care of her family.  She will be greatly missed

Say a prayer for my beautiful Mom! She loved her family and all her many pets that she rescued. Rest in peace 🙏

Love ❤️ 
Harry
