Dear Sharry, Jeff, Jill, John and all of your family,
It is with sadness and sympathy that I learn of the passing of Katy, but it is with delight that I remember her. She was a genuine, fun loving person, with whom I remember sharing many laughs over the kitchen table. I always appreciated her direct nature, and her love of and pride in her family was quite obvious. No matter what the age, the loss of a mother is a heartbreak. I know she was well cared for by all and that she knew how much she was loved. My heartfelt sympathies to you all.
