It's been a long time since I have seen and talked to Kathy. I remember her picking up Kennedy from her Dad's house in greenfield Plaza. I would drive by and wave and sometimes stop and talk to her. I would also she her up at school, for Kennedy. I will miss her very much. I have so many memories of her, from the time I was little, growing up right up the street from her. My prayers our with her family and Kennedy.

May Kathy rest in peace in a better world than the one we are in now. Had many a good time in and out of school with her. Hope her son, and the rest of the family will find comfort at this difficult time. See you on the other side!
