I want to thank everyone for all the kind words and support through this very difficult time. I have be blown away by all the love and compassion, just know it means more to us then we could ever explain. My mother definitely thought me to love and be kind to others and it’s great to see that she had that same impact on others as well. Thank y’all so much. May God bless you
Teresa and Ricky
You are in my Prayers. Love you both.
Ricky,
After all these years of knowing you I never knew that Kathy was your mother. I know now from where you get your smile, friendliness and good manners. When Jim and I moved here she waited on us at the diner. She introduced herself and said; “you all are new here aren’t you?” From then on no matter where she saw us she always stopped to chat and see how we were doing. Sometimes if I were at work and Jim was eating alone she would ask how I was or if I was working. She was just a really nice lady and I know she was as nice to everyone else as she was to us. She always had an encouraging word and was so upbeat. We missed her when she retired. May God give you and your family peace and comfort until that day that you are all reunited in His heavenly kingdom. She is smiling, healed and walking with Jesus.
With deepest sympathy,
Jim and Marilyn Ault
Dear Ron, Ricky and family,
Miss Kathy was one of the sweetest people we ever met. She always had a smile on her face, even when she didn’t feel good. She and Jonathan shared a great fondness for Mickey Mouse and they always had a big chat each time we saw her at the Chuckwagon. It was an honor to have known her. Please know that as God holds you in His arms, we hold you in our thoughts and prayers. with our love, Judy, Jonathan and Mike
To the entire family,
Kathy was a very loving and caring person. She was beautiful in so many ways. God has another angel. My sympathy goes out to you all. May God wrap his arms around you and help you through this sad time.
R.I.P. Kathy! Fly high! Blessed be!
Teresa, Ricky and family,
Sweet memories of time spent with your mom. Holidays and other dinners and get togethers and her bubbly personality was so endearing. Prayers for your peace and comfort during this time.
Teresa , Ricky , and family , Your mother was someone that I will never forget. Going all the way back to All American video, no matter what kind of a day I was having she would always have something to say that would make me laugh, will be thinking of you all.
