My family and I are going to miss Kathi. Over the course of the last 25+ years, she has been nothing but a bright core of love and joy. Although you might have wanted to catch up with her and what she was up to in her day-to-day, she always insisted on finding out how you were doing first. She was genuinely passionate about celebrating the one’s she loved, and being generous to those in need of love. 

Her family, especially her daughters, are a legacy of the ever beaming goodness that was at the foundation of her person. 

We will forever cherish the memories I have of Kathi, and relish in the beauty of her selfless generosity. Many prayers for her and her surviving family.

Kathi was such a great lady, I learned a lot from her, she faced the last months with dignity and compassion. I will miss her sweetness and caring for everyone. A rare soul. Heaven received a near perfect Angel.

It has been a long time since I have seen Kathy. She was my friend and we shared many memories and life experiences with each other. I wish I could come to the service for her but I live in North Idaho now.

I met Kathi when I worked at the auction where she handled my titles. Kathi and I shared the same birthday and we would have lunch on that day to celebrate our lives at Red Lobster! she was such a inspiration to me as well as a good friend. She will truly be missed!

Dear Kristin and Allison, Your mom is a great woman. She was there for my husband, before we married, when he was trying to work and parent alone. She is always a happy person, despite the curve balls that life can throw,
She has lots of friends and family to catch up with. Right here in this photo, she is visiting with Helen Jackson, June 1980. You know they have lots of catching up to do! (If Harry Jackson, who is sitting behind them in the wild shirt, will let the ladies have a work in edge-wise. Just kidding Harry.}

Kathi was an eternal friend.41 years ago, she helped me make a baby quilt for my daughter, Emily. She lived a life of service to her fellow man. Jeffrey and I send our love and prayers to her sweet girls and all the family. It was a tender mercy to have her in our lives.

I knew her as aunt Kathy, so beautiful and kind. In this photo from 1969 featured in the blue dress.

Loved your sweet mom❤️ 
Sending our love and prayers to you

Our hearts go out to you both. Kathi was the sweetest lady I’ve ever known. I know she is setting on the right side of our lord. I’m glad she’s now at peace. We loved her

Kathi was one of the sweetest people I met on my mission. She was so sweet, strong and beautiful. She had this amazing light around her and always had a smile and a kind word. She’s done amazing things in her life and she will be missed. My prayers go out to her family and I know she is smiling down on them.
