My sincere condolences to Kitty´s family. It was my honor to work as a caregiver to Kitty for two years. I will always remember our walking the pool at Algonquin early each morning when we had the pool to ourselves chatting the whole way. We worked a puzzle together every morning & Kitty, John & I took turns trying to see who figured it out first. We were so disappointed when they stopped publishing it. I took her to physical therapy & exercised with her & we shared many stories together, talking about our families. I really loved Kitty Kat. May she rest in eternal peace.
