  9. I will always remember Katherine's "Happy Spring" messages every time I called! She was the happiest spirit I've ever known and her mission in life was to bring joy to all of us. I am a better person because of her. Nancy, please let me know what I can do.

  10. It is heart breaking that Kathy's laughter and friendship will no longer touch our worldly lives. She was such a special spirit! She has left her pain and sorrow, and is now a special angel.

    I pray that all who knew her, will find peace and comfort in Christ's promise of eternal life, and may your many happy memories of Kathy carry you through your grief.

    Nancy, Norma, and family, my love and prayers are with you.

  14. These past few months have been a blur. Jennifer, thank you for reading our notes to Katherine a final time.

    It seemed so unfair that she had only 6 months to live and 2 months seems incomprehensible.

    She died with the same love and grace and energy as she had lived.

    I'm thankful that her suffering is over and that she was looking forward to heaven.

    Nancy, Norma, Jennifer & all of Katherine's family: take good care.

  15. Dear Nancy,
    It's never really easy to find the words to say to someone who's lost a loved one so close to them, but with all my heart and soul, I just wanted to take a moment to send you and your family our deepest condolences at this time. We all know how special Katherine was to you, so in a way, your loss is our loss as well. We love you all and we hate to see any of you hurt in any way. But take comfort in knowing that "angels on earth" must travel in flocks...for Katerine wasn't the only angel; You stayed with her in her time of need and follwed the path until the end. Only an "angel" or person with angelic qualities could be strong enough to display such heart. Again...we're very sorry for your loss and want you to know that you are loved and admired for your strengths. Never mourn the loss of a loved one, but celebrate their life instread. God Bless. Love Aunt Reggie
