Just thinking about you Kathy. Miss you and I miss sharing photos of our growing little girl. You always loved seeing updates and I enjoyed surprising you here and there with new moments. At least now you can visit on your own time. Miss you young lady!

Just me-
She always signed her letters that way. As if that wasn’t enough. She was a good friend. She was wonderful at writing letters, remembering birthdays, and reminding you that you were better than you thought you were.
She moved back home to St. Joseph many years ago. Technology/social media was never a favorite way to connect for her. We stayed in touch through a handful of long calls, a few Facebook attempts, and many cards and letters.
Going through old cards/photos this evening I came across one of Kathy’s cards (with the post-it inside) and got curious, as I have not heard from her in quite awhile.
Instant tears as the first thing I could find was her obituary. I hate finding out this way... months later. I hate regretting not being a better friend. You always think there will be more time... what a foolish mistake.
I pray that you are resting in Heaven with your Dad, who I know you adored. 🙏🏻💓
I’m so sorry for the family’s loss. I loved her dearly.

Beth, We just found out about your sister passing away. We are also sorry to hear it! She was always the sweetest whenever we interacted. Thinking of you all. With love, your old neighbors Jill, Tim, Addie, Elizabeth and Sidney Straub

Kathy was such a dear, sweet friend in high school and through our college years. I was honored that she was in my wedding. She was such a great letter writer, and I'm so grateful that I hung on to a few of them. They will bring me comfort and good memories.

Oh my Kit Kat, I miss you terribly. You were always such a ray of sunshine in my life. I loved our talks and I miss them so much. I pray you are resting easy. You were a blessing in my life . I will remember you forever.

Such a wonderful woman. I always think of how welcome she made me feel when I moved to Michigan and started working at Whirlpool. Loved our chats - I always walked away uplifted. I’m blessed to have known you, Kathy.

While I didn't have a chance to connect with Kathy for many years, those of us who would regularly "hang out" together back in our SJHS days will always remember Kathy and her sweet smile and fun personality. It's what attracted us to her. I remember fondly how kind Alan and Gloria were to me. She was lucky to have such great parents.
