I was a coworker to Kathy at Sanford for just over three years. Most recently we kept in touch by email, as I'm no longer in the country. I always told her she was a firecracker, running around the office so full of energy, every second of the day. In my mind's eye, I can still see her smiling and hear her laughing. I can hear her tell stories about Gabe, Mark & Lisa, the grandbabies, and trips with her sisters. She was an absolute joy to work with, and I will never forget her. I am so sorry for your loss, and I pray that God will wrap you in His comforting arms during this time.

I've know Kathy (Kat) since she started with Sanford. I could always count on her to make me laugh with her outrageous stories, and the best part was...they were true! I know her family will miss her terribly; I will too. See ya, Kat.

I had the pleasure of working with Kathy here at Sanford for many years. Kathy's sense of humor, her kindness and good sense will be greatly missed. I am so sorry for your loss. Listening to Kathy talk about her family, especially her grandbabies, it was obvious how much she loved and was loved. Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
