Baby Sister
  You have been gone over 5 months but it still seems like yesterday that you left us. Barbara is still lost without her twin and wishes you were here. Then again I am still lost without my twin Patricia-Ann. I hope the two of you are happy with Mom & Dad, Bob & My Brian.
Until I see you again.
I Love You All
Carol-Ann

From One Baby B to Another Baby B,
  You and Barbara were born on a very sunny and warm afternoon in May. I was 11 and Bobby was 14. Mom had rushed Bobby and I out the door to school that morning. Dad hadn't left for work yet which was strange, but she said that she had a doctors appointment and he was going to drive her. It made sense because her belly was so big she couldn't fit behind the steering wheel. What we didn't know was she was going to have the baby that day. We also didn't know it was going to be two babies. They were afraid if we knew we wouldn't want to go to school. They figured if we were at school we were being looked after unless you weren't born until after school let out. When we got home that afternoon Dad was there but not Mom. He told us that Mom had a baby girl but he had a surprise. There were Two baby girls! He showed us pictures of the two of you in one bed. You both looked so tiny and cute. You were bigger than Barbara but still tiny. Bobby and I were jumping around and yelling. So excited to have Two baby sisters! In those days siblings couldn't go to the hospital to see the new baby so we had to wait until you came home. That was a very hard wait. We just wanted to see, hold and play with both of you. Dad let us decorate your bassinets with pink and white ribbons and bows and plastic baby dolls so that they were all ready for you when you got home. We got to hold you and feed you and I got to help Mom change you. We would take turns one time Mom would take Barbara and I would take you Kathie, then the next time we would switch babies. I helped Mom with you guys every day as you grew up. Then when you were 7 I had a baby girl. Then Kathie, in all of your 7 year old innocence you asked "only one?". To you, girls came in two's that's how Mommy had them why didn't I. You loved being a 7 year old Aunt. The more times you became an Aunt the more you loved it. Then you became a Great Aunt and loved it. I wish with all my heart that you were here to see all of them grow up and that you had been here to see Anastasia born. As fate would have it she was born two days after you passed. I know you will be watching over all of them and us everyday along with everyone else there. We miss you and them, none of you are ever very far from our minds and never out of our hearts. We miss you and love you and will until we are all together again. We have more family there than we do here but we never expected that you would be there so soon. Another life in our family cut short. 
Love you and missing you.
The first baby B 
Carol-Ann

Kathie.........Here I am "G" working with you was a rollercoaster good times, bad times, sad times and conversations that let me to know you have a big heart, it was nobody in that room at work that didn't saw pictures of your nieces, kids and FOB that band u love ❤  you will be always remembered! RIP Kat!

I worked with Kathy for about 10 years. We used our initials a lot to sign off on paperwork and I'll always remember she called me PG instead of Pat - even after I got married and my initials changed to PH she said I would always be PG. I will remember her for her big heart and generosity.
R.I.P KB!

My Baby Sister Kathleen Florence,
  I have known you every day of your life. You were not only my baby sister you were my God Daughter. I watched you grow and you were always a rough and tumble scrapper. Growing up you wouldn't let anyone pick on or give your twin Barbara a hard time.  You always stood up for what you believed in and once you made up your mind there was no changing it. You gave the phrase stubborn Irish a new meaning.  I remember when you fell through the window at the Alts' house down the street.  Barbara came running home to tell Mom and I.  Mom didn't think it could be that bad and sent me to see. You were crying but calm. I took one look at you with a big open bleeding gash down the side of your face, scooped you up and carried you home. You stayed calm until Mom told you you had to go to the emergency room.  That was it,  you didn't want to go. It was all I could do to hold a cloth on you and hang on to you at the same time. At the ER you calmed down when I gave you my class ring to wear. Then the doctor came in. He said you needed stitches, you were having none of it and threw my ring across the ER. It took over 1/2 hour to find it. You had some throw and a very determined look on your face telling us you Weren't getting stitches. It was some fight trying to hold you down but, in the end you got the stitches and weren't talking to me. That didn't last long though. That was you through and through. You were always your own person but, you always had a big soft spot for your niece and nephews and the pets.
 You were loved and will be missed by so many people. You missed Brian so much this last year and now you are back with him. Hug and kiss him for me.
 Rest easy my sweet sister. You had to deal with a great deal in your lifetime, now is the time for you to kick back and rest with Mom, Dad, Bob, Patricia Ann & my son Brian. I love you always and will miss you always. Until we are together again.........
                                                                            Carol - Ann
