We will really miss our red-headed aunt! She had a great sense of humor and loved life. We will treasure our times with her and offer our cousins loving sympathy and support...

Many fond memories of Aunt Kathleen and Uncle Dale. Our family always enjoyed visiting them in Florida. May God comfort each of you during this time of grief.

We called her "Auntie Kate" but she was more like a second Mom. We spent at least a part of every weekend with her and the family when I was growing up. She was famous for her water pie. On the nights that my Dad helped out at the gas station, she and my Dad would share a cup of hot tea made from the same tea bag. I can still see them laughing and talking and sitting at the counter. I was blessed to have such a wonderful aunt and friend. She was greatly loved and will be greatly missed.

My condolences to the family of Kathleen.
I worked with her a few years and enjoyed each day that we could exchange ideas and of course joke around.
May god bless you and comfort each one of you.

I remember Great Aunt Kathleen and Uncle Dale visiting my grandmother Opal (her sister), in Huntington. I was greatly blessed with the "hand me downs" from Kay and they were really neat! As an adult my husband and I have visited her in Florida and we talked genealogy. Will miss her alertness and interest in our family.
