I will always be grateful for the beautiful baby shower you threw for me at my mom's (Linda Cole) work. My heart goes out to her family..God Bless!!

Too soon for you my lovely friend. We go back too many years. probobly 1st grade. So sad to hear of your passing. I have very fond memories.  Can you remember "The wonder years" series on TV?  That was our life back in the day.  Miss you  always. Tears in Heaven.

My heart goes out to you and your family. I enjoyed assisting her while we worked at AZ Dept of Education in the past years.  She was always friendly and happy to see me when I was able to help her. She was an inspiration lady! I will see you Kathy up there with the Lord one day.  May God bless you and family as always.  From Darla Dickerson in Gilbert, AZ.

I loved working with Kathy. She treated everyone with respect and was a wonderful person. The world  has lost a very special woman...

Kathy,
I realize that the best years of my sister's life were when you and her were hanging out. You brought the best out of her and I pray that you two are hanging out again. 
To Kathy's family, I can't imagine your loss, and only hope that God's love and healing powers comfort you.

Kath was not only my cousin, but my best friend growing up. We were forever getting into trouble. I will miss her laugh and her funny  stories. I miss you so much already, love your cousin, Rachel

Kathy, I'm so sorry I wasn't able to come and say goodbye, so here's my goodbye to you. We grew up next door to each other. We were boyfriend and girlfriend when we were very young and teased by Frankie and Robert for playing house and acting married. All through grade school and high school we always best friends and had a special bond. These memories will always be in my heart. The last time we talked, you told me of your illness and how you had beaten it and how hard and painful it was on you and your family. We were to get together and talk of past days together, but that never happened and it saddens me that it never did.To Frank, Virgie, Frankie and 
Robert, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Words can not ease your grief or sorrow. Know that Kathy is now pain free in the arms of God, but she will forever be with you and all of us. With all my love, Jimmy

I hadn't talked to Kathy for over 25 years.  I'm thankful I got the chance to speak to her recently.  Kathy didn't dwell on her troubles, she lifted my spirit as we reminisced about growing up.  My thoughts and prayer to all who were touched by Kathy, we can take solace and serenity in the celebration of her life.

Wow, This has taken me by surprise. I left ADE in 2001, but I remember Kathy so well. Always so happy and funny. She was a part "of our crowd" back in the day!I can picture her in my mind as she was, so long ago and I will always remember her that way. May your family take pride in the person she was and honor her for that. My prayers are with you.

Kathy's always-ready smile brought the sunshine indoors for those of us who were lucky enough to work with her at the ADE.  She never had to announce, "I'm going to pump you up;" her presence simply had that effect on all of us around her.

Dearest Kathy, you are truly an amazing person who will be missed by all. My deepest condolences go out to Kathy's family during this difficult time. Kathy was one of the first people I met when I started working at the Department of Education in 2003. She was so fun to work with and always made me laugh with her wonderful sense of humor. I feel Blessed to have been able to spend time with Kathy. God Bless.

I was so sorry to hear about Kathy's passing. I used to come down to Arizona from Washington to work during the winter months, and I stayed with the LeDesma's right across the street from where Kathy and her family lived. She was always very nice and fun to be around. Although it's been years since I have seen her, when I think about the great memories I have of Arizona, Kathy is in many of them. My sincere condolences to her family. May you rest in peace Kathy.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Martinez family.  May Kathy rest in peace now that her journey on earth is over.  

Ronald and Carolyn Ballard

Kathy,
May you rest in peace with our Lord and savior. You will be terribly missed by all of us- your friends at the ADE. Your loving personality and smile kept all of us a cheerful family. Thanks for the great 8 years I spent knowing you- the service oriented employee in certification who brought smiles and laugher each day to work.

My condolences to Kathy's family.  I worked with Kathy for years at the Arizona Department of Education.  She was always such a delight and the highlight of the day when she greeted you with her smile.  This is a loss for all of us that enjoyed Kathy's friendship.  May you Rest in Peace.

I want to express my sincere sympathy to Kathy's family. I hope and pray that within time all your pain and sorrow will be replaced with beautiful memories of Kathy.  I believe in my heart that Kathy is in heaven and my mother is taking care of her.  In addition to the wonderful friendship that Kathy gave me..... She also gave me my sweet Annie (my labador retreiver).  She will forever be in my heart.

Sympathies to all of Kathy's family & friends ~

I'm sadden to hear my friend has left us too soon.  I worked at The Dept of Education in various departments but we always remained friends. She had eyes that sparkled and a smile that never quit. We laughed alot and that was because Kathy was very funny and fun to be with.  I'm sad but I know you are happier now more than ever my friend. Rest in God's love.  I'll be seeing you.  R. Mendoza

Having moved away from Arizona, I had not seen Kathy in so many years.  I clicked through the photo gallery and just started crying.  Kathy was such a generous and genuine spirit, and I'm sorry for the years that I missed.  

Miss Virginia, Bill, Frank, and Robert, I am so sorry for the pain you are feeling right now, but I know you remember how lucky you are to have had her in your life.   I wish you peace.

I'll miss you so much, you were a very good friend & I loved You.

Kathy M always found humor in any situation and her laugh will be missed! I know she's in a better place and is having a ball!

Kathy was truly one of the Special People that I have had the pleasure of meeeting and knowing over the years.  Her positive attitude and kind heart have been an inspiration to me over the past 8 years.  I know that she is in a better place and I also know that the biggest loss is to those of us that remain here.  We love you Kathy and will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Kathy M, words cannot express the sadness we feel yet we know that you are looking down upon us smiling, laughing, and cracking jokes as you usually do. You were not only "Mudders" friend but you were our family. Thank you for opening your heart to us and being such a great friend to my mom. Your caring nature and witty sense of humor is why we loved you so much. Thank you for being you and thank you for being a part of our lives. You inspire all of us to be strong, to fight, and to never give up when things get difficult. We will never forget you! Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. We love you!!

I met Kathy several times at various family functions.  She is a very funny lady and a unique person to know.  She will be greatly missed. My prayers are with her family.

Miss Kathy and her family, my name is Camden and you have loved me since my mom first brought me to work.  You always treated me like I was important and made sure you gave me a "treat for the road".  I will miss you like I know mom and dad will.  I hope one day you can show me around up there as well.
To your family, thank you for sharing such a great person with us.

What an amazing young lady. Although I only had the opportunity to meet her twice, they were memories I will long remember. I had lunch with her and her brother (Robert) and I could see the love they shared and see what close family ties they had. Rest in Peace Kathy and God Bless your family. My prayers are with them. Earleen

I want to express my sincere sympathy to Kathy's family.  I hope and pray that within time all your pain and sorrow will be replaced with beautiful memories of Kathy.  May our Lord God Bless you all!
