You have your deepest sympathy.
My deep sympathy to each of Kathy’s loved ones.
Our small Class of 1964 was close, drifted apart as we worked and raised families, and has gotten close again with three day annual reunions.
There are not enough words to express the grief for such a dynamic person. I am so very sorry.
We are sending hugs and prayers in this difficult time. I’m so sorry about your mom Rick & Cora Amd to the rest of your family. One of the hardest people to lose in life and my door is always open should you need a shoulder to lean on.
Our heart felt sympathy goes out to you Tom. Tom Jr., Jen and Rick need to know the love they showed for their mother and father at this difficult time will live in their dad’s heart in days ahead. Please know our prayers are with you.
We are all sorry for your loss. I believe Kathy was one of the most unconditional and genuinely kind persons I’ve ever met. She always spoke, waved or started a friendly conversation. I loved her smile and laugh, and hearing about all her grand children. It’s been a pleasure having her as part of our extended family for all these years, and she will be missed.
Tom and family (Tom, Jen, Rick), I am so sorry to hear about Kathy. I enjoyed working with Kathy in the deli at Carl’s. We always did our work but we had a lot of fun there. I can tell you that She made the prettiest meat and cheese trays ever! Even when I went to work at Walmart, Kathy would always stop to talk to me. She was a good person and friend and I will miss her. May you and your family be comforted during these difficult days.
We are so sorry to hear of the loss of Cathy. She was a wonderful employee and a member of our crazy family. We all loved Cathy with her quiet sense of humor and wonderful personality.May God keep her in His loving arms and may the family be granted strength to move on.
