Kathy's family: For every life has a purpose to fill, a purpose which us humans can seldom infer. But she was a gift from heaven, whose purpose was to make this world understand what love, friendship, goodness, and humbleness was all about. Goodness belongs to heaven, and I know she is watching us from there, bestowing her beautiful smile upon us. May her soul rest in peace. ◦Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts. - Posted by: Ed & Florence Dowbush (Extended Family.
