Denise Peters wrote a sympathy message

“I was so sad to hear about Kathy's death. She was such a beautiful caring woman. Danny is my Godfather and every year without fail since I was about 5 years old she sent me a birthday card. It meant so much to me. I also took my confirmation name for her, however, I found out just a few years ago that she was Kathleen not Katherine but the feeling and meaning is still for her so I am now Denise Alice Kathleen not Katherine. RIP My dear cousin. I will miss you!”

Maggie Fitzgerald wrote a sympathy message

“I am so very sorry for your loss. Grandma Kathy was much more to us than our colleague. She was the kindest, most selfless woman that we all came to know and love. Her smile, her positive attitude, and her zest for life will live on through all those that knew and loved her. I pray that your family finds peace during this difficult time and that you can always find comfort in the beautiful memories that you had together. She was truly a living angel among us. We will deeply miss her.”

“Our deepest condolences during this hard time. Your family and friends will remain in our thoughts & prayers. May her soul rest and her spirit guide you along your journey in life. My kids attended the school Grandma Kathy volunteered and they talked about how loving and caring she was. They loved coming home with a silly straw that she passed out to the kiddos during lunch. Thank you Grandma Kathy for being apart of their school memories. You will be missed. Tony, Briella & Noah”
