Guestbook

  1. I have known Kathie since the 80’s. She worked at Kinder Care in the baby room. Everyone knows Kathie loves babies! Such a nurturer. She knew how to hold them and love them and then she joined Shawn and Tim’s home. She loved each of those children so much. Aunt Kathie…the kind of aunt every family wants. My daughter Krystal got her internship because of Kathie’s recommendation. My children all grew up hearing Kathie and her kind words. She will be so very missed.

  2. Cousin Kathie, I really loved you! Such good memories! With you and I visiting your grandpa & grandma (my aunt & uncle) and eating with Don. Besides Jesus I know you are having a great time with them and Lainie. I will miss you! So sorry to miss the Memorial Service but you won’t care. You are in a wonderful place!!!! Cousin Donna

  3. Dear Tim and Shawn,
    Kathy was a precious lady. I always enjoyed my visits with her through the years. I am sorry that I cannot be at the memorial service to rejoice with and cry with you. Hold on to wonderful memories until you meet again and celebrate with her in Heaven.
    Love, Linda Smith

  4. Kathie was one of my very special “patients”. I had lost track of her since I retired from OB-Gyn Associates. I was her nurse practitioner. I always enjoyed visiting with her. We had so much to talk about over the years. My sympathy goes to all the family. Jodi (Swender) Shelledy
