George I was so sad to hear of Kathy's passing. I will always remember how the two of you welcomed me into the family all the years ago when I arrived here with Toby. The reunions that she organized with her wonderful spagetti salad. She always had a beautiful smile as well as a embracing hug whenever we saw the two of you. She will be missed. Our prayers go out to you at this difficult time.
Mary, Rodney, Brian and Devin

I was saddened to hear about the passing of Kathryne,she sure was a beautiful woman. I will be praying for your family at this time, but so happy to know that she is with the Lord. I have so many fond memories of all of you and your mom and dad. Priscilla I have never forgotten your birthday on Oct. 26th. I did stop by to see Sherman at the house a few years ago but they were not home, would love to see all of you. Just know you are in my prayers at this time of Kathryne's homegoing.
God Bless, Barb (Leslie) Ellcey

When I think of Kathy the first thing that comes to mind is her wonderful laugh and smile. Kathy was not only beautiful on the outside, she was also beautiful inside. As much as we will miss her, we must remember that she is now with Kelly, Rita, Grandpa Glenn, and Grandma Ampey. My condolences to all who loved her.

George,
Our prayers, thoughts and love go to you, Kathryne, and to your family. When we walked into the funeral home, the feeling of love and joy was immense, just as Kathryne brought to you, the family, and friends during her life. When you take that special first ride on the Harley, know that Kathryne, as beautiful as ever, will be right behind you on that bike smiling as always. The love will forever be with the both of you.
God Bless.
Bridgett & Joe Griffore.

In hearing of Kathy's passing there was a feeling of disbelief. At the same time memories of her bought a smile. Remembering our trips to Kalamazoo,overnights at the farm. I have fond memories of Kathy,Ruth Ann and myself doing the things teenagers do. She'll be missed. May "God's Grace" keep you and your family as "He" has kept her! Blessings! Helen Hooker & Family

I was just blown away when I read of Kathy's passing. I've always admired her out-going, fun personality, and I will miss seeing her in the store from time to time. We also went to Lee Country School together. God bless the husband and family of this beautiful woman. They surely are having a huge reunion up there of all the neighbors and friends from the Southwest Paw Paw community she came from! In God's love, Barb Alden
