Jimmy, Katie, Chris,
As you grieve the loss of Kathy, I hope you will be comforted by the years of memories with your family. Kathy’s legacy of living life to the fullest is an example for all of us. Even though our friendship was connected by “The Vittetoe Boys”, we had our own connection based on mutual interests and our faith. She was always inclusive and always interested. Prayers continue for God’s peace and comfort in the days to come. Love, Cynthia
