Kathy was an awesome lady. She will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her. We shared a lot of laughs on our rides to Rotary meetings. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.
I will be forever grateful to Kathy as she called me one winter afternoon in January 2002 and asked me if I still was looking for a job close to home. The job that she was speaking of was the job that I have now had for 15 years. Her phone call gave me the priceless gift of being able to work closer to my young sons who were in school at the time. I learned a lot from her and try to be the wonderful person that she was taking care of my customers. When she retired, I knew I had big shoes to fill and I work everyday to make sure that our customers have the same awesome service that she provided to them. RIP Kathy! I know that you are in a better place!
What a sweet person and great neighbor. I am going to miss this wonderful friend. The world is a lonely place today. RIP, Kathy.
