My beautiful dolly friend I know you are at peace with God and no longer in pain. I love you and will always treasure our friendship and the dolls I got from you. Love you sweetie and Thom I pray for your peace. Kimberly
Dear Thomas,
Although Kathy and me – her brother-in-law - were separated geographically (New Jersey – Germany), by time zones and time (we spent only about four to five days in each other's company – on the occasion of her and Thomas' trip to Germany in 2015 and my short trip to New York in 2019 - and also separated by language (at least a little bit), the short moments were long enough to show her as a kind-hearted soul who cared for others, a sensitive and openhearted personality, someone I would have liked to spend more time with.
It is terribly sad that her life was cut short by that horrible illness.
We trust that she can now live a better life in His presence and that the people she leaves behind will be filled with strength and consolation.
RIP, Kathy.
Stefan Rehorst
Kathie will live on in my heart as a true friend. I will never forget her sincere love, care and prayers for me and my family. She quickly became Aunt Kathie to my kids who also love her. We were blessed to go on some outings together as well as several walks where we would share about our joys, lives, hurts and her faith was just incredible. She declared her healing at the onset of cancer, and while I miss her a great deal, I am grateful that the Lord did not allow her to suffer for long. She has been taken to glory and I know is making Heaven an even more beauty- filled place.
Thom and family-our prayers cover you and our support is here for you in whatever ways are meaningful. May the God of comfort fill you with peace.
Dear Thom, So sorry for your lost. I met Kathy at Goodwill. I used to work there. I also met you a couple of times when you came there with her. I met her years ago before you and her met. She used to come there a lot. We got to know each other. We both would talk and if either of us was having a bad day we would try and help each other feel better. I could tell she was a very kind caring person with a big heart. She had the prettiest eyes too. I could tell she also had a great love for God. I will always remember her as the caring kind person she was. She will be truly missed. She is at Peace now. She is one of God"s Angels watching over you. You take care. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I was a friend of Kathy’s on Facebook although we never met in person. I enjoyed her posts and messages she sent me from time to time. Her friends in our Rialta motor home group prayed heavily for her when we found out she was ill and they are praying heavily for her family’s comfort at this time.
It’s important to remember how true Maya Angelou’s poem is:
“When we cast our bread upon the waters, we can presume that someone downstream whose face we will never know will benefit from our action, as we who are downstream from another will profit from that grantor's gift.”
I never met Kathleen in person, only through a prayer group she started on Facebook. I could tell she was a strong prayer warrior and sincerely cared for others and wanted to pray for each need that arose. I rejoice that she is no longer in pain and is in the presence of the One who prepared a place for her eternal home. She recognized that He died on the cruel cross for her sins and arose to conquer death for all mankind. I look forward to “meeting” my friend in Heaven one day where we will worship our Lord and Savior together for all eternity. Karen Dean

We are so sorry for the loss of Kathy. I will always remember the many road trips we took, the music we shared, raising our daughters at the same time, Santa Cruz, the laughter, the tears, and so much more. RIp dear Kathy...you are in peace now.
